PRIVACY POLICY — RootedNLoud

Last updated: 2025

We Keep It Real — And We Keep It Private

At RootedNLoud (rootednloud.com), your privacy is not a legal formality. It's a commitment. We built this brand on trust — trust between us and this community — and that extends to how we handle your personal information.

This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and exactly how it's used. No corporate doublespeak. Just straight talk.

It is always your choice whether to provide personal information through our website. What you share with us will be treated with care and never used in ways you haven't agreed to.

1. By Using Our Website

By accessing and using rootednloud.com, you agree to our collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect Automatically

Like most websites, RootedNLoud automatically collects certain non-identifiable information when you visit, including:

Your IP address and internet service provider
Date and time of your visit
The website that referred you to us
Your operating system and browser type
Pages visited, images viewed, and content downloaded

This data is used strictly for site administration, performance improvement, and making your experience better. It cannot be used to identify you personally.

3. Cookies

RootedNLoud uses cookies — small files stored on your device that help us recognize you when you return. We use cookies to:

Remember you as a returning visitor so you don't have to re-enter your info
Personalize your browsing experience
Understand how you interact with our site so we can keep improving it

You can choose to decline cookies in your browser settings — but doing so may limit some features or your ability to complete purchases.

4. Tracking & Analytics

We may use aggregated, non-personal tracking data to understand user demographics, traffic patterns, and purchase behavior. This information may be shared with advertising partners including Meta (Facebook/Instagram) and Google for the purpose of reaching people who might connect with RootedNLoud.

No individual identity is ever exposed through these reports. When tracking data is linked to personal information you've voluntarily provided, that combined data is treated as personal information and handled accordingly.

5. Personal Information You Provide

When you shop with us or reach out, you may provide:

Full name
Email address
Shipping address
Phone number
Payment information

This information is used exclusively to process your order, communicate with you, and serve you better. Without it, we can't complete your transaction — but we will never ask for more than we need.

6. How We Use Your Information

We use your personal information to:

Process and fulfill your orders
Communicate about your purchases and any updates
Respond to your questions and customer service needs
Send marketing emails — only if you've opted in
Improve your experience on our site

You can opt out of marketing emails anytime by clicking "Unsubscribe" at the bottom of any email we send. We respect that — no hard feelings.

7. Children's Privacy

RootedNLoud sells products intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 13, in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

If you are under 13, please ask a parent or legal guardian to assist you. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will delete it immediately.

8. Who We Share Your Information With

We only share your information when necessary to run our business and serve you. Here's who that includes:

Service Providers

To fulfill your order, we share relevant information with:

Payment processors (Shopify Payments, PayPal, Stripe)
Print fulfillment partners (Printify and its print network)
Shipping carriers (USPS, UPS, FedEx)

All service providers are required to protect your information consistent with this policy.

Advertising Partners

We may share limited data with Meta Platforms and Google LLC to run targeted ad campaigns. These partners are bound to handle your information responsibly.

Legal & Law Enforcement

We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or if we have reasonable grounds to believe disclosure is necessary to investigate unlawful activity.

We will never sell your personal information. Not now. Not ever.

9. Accessing & Correcting Your Information

You have the right to request access to your personal information, challenge its accuracy, and ask for corrections. To do so, contact us at:

📧 cs@rootednloud.com

We'll respond in a timely manner and give you full transparency about what we hold.

10. Contests & Promotions

If we run contests or giveaways, those may come with their own rules about data collection. Where those rules conflict with this policy, the specific contest rules will apply to that promotion only.

11. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to external sites. Once you leave rootednloud.com, we have no control over how those sites collect or handle your information. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party site you visit.

12. If You Leave

If you stop using our website or your access ends, we may continue to retain your information as described in this policy. If you'd like to stop receiving communications from us, reach out anytime at cs@rootednloud.com and we'll take care of it.

13. Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we do, the updated version will be posted at rootednloud.com/pages/privacy-policy.

Your continued use of our site after any update means you've accepted the revised policy. We recommend checking this page periodically.
