It is important that the Publisher’s website also provides for a ‘privacy policy’ which will specify to the Users that the Publishers are engaged in affiliate marketing through a third-party service being Roots Digital, however stating that Roots Digital does not intentionally obtain or store any personally identifiable information about Users at any time. However, if the User uses the Publisher toolbar, such information may be inadvertently captured by Roots Digital, if such information is displayed on the website that the User visits and such website has insufficient security safeguards. However, although this information may be processed by us, we do not use the same for any purpose, nor do we pass it on to third parties, and it is automatically discarded after page load.
Publishers must also provide the Users with full details about Roots Digital’ cookies which are dropped onto the Users’ machines via Publisher websites and toolbars when Users click on the affiliate links.
Such information must be provided by the Publisher prior to Users downloading Roots Digital’ cookies or their machines automatically accepting such cookies. Publishers are advised to provide a link for the Users of this “Privacy Policy” document for them to acquaint themselves regarding the non-personal information of Users that may be collected by Roots Digital.
Roots Digital does not trace or attempt to trace any personally identifiable information of its Users. As mentioned in the Publisher section above, if the User uses the Publisher toolbar, certain information may be inadvertently captured by Roots Digital, if such information is displayed on the website that the User visits and such website has insufficient security safeguards. However, Roots Digital does not such information procured for any purpose whatsoever, nor is it passed on to the third parties, but is automatically discarded after page load.
Roots Digital however stores the Users’ IP addresses, only to determine the User’s vicinity/country. We need this information to ensure that the links we create are of the Merchants located in the User’s country. We do not use this information to identify any individuals.
We also store information about the device that Users use to access the internet, such as the browser type, browser version, and device used to access sites within our Publisher network. This helps us diagnose and fix browser compatibility issues more swiftly, and optimise our service to suit the preferred browsing environments.
As part of the information available in standard web serving logs, Roots Digital also stores information about the referrer, i.e. the website page from which the User linked to the Publisher Site. However, Roots Digital in this regard does not make any attempt to try and identify any User.
The Users as a part of the service provided by Roots Digital, may click on the Merchant links provided on the Publisher’s website by virtue of which they will be directed to the Merchant’s website. The User may also make a purchase on the Merchant website by following instructions thereon and may enter its purchase order details such as delivery/postal address, name, land-mark, bank account details, etc. at the time of purchasing a product/service or booking its preference on such Merchant website. The Merchant websites provide separate privacy polices than that of Roots Digital. For the avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that Roots Digital’ Privacy Policy applies exclusively to Roots Digital and to the information collected by Roots Digital. The Users expressly acknowledge and confirm that Roots Digital is not responsible for the privacy policies of its Merchant websites that they link to, nor do we have control over the use or security of information provided by the User on such websites or collected by such websites.
We therefore encourage you to very carefully review the privacy policy of any third-party website or our Merchant website, before using it. Personal Information (if any) provided by you on such web domains shall be dealt with them in the manner provided by the privacy policy of such third party web domains. It is hereby expressly stated that Roots Digital has no control whatsoever over information of the Users posted on such websites. This Privacy Policy only deals with your information shared and collected by Roots Digital and we shall in no manner be liable/bound for protection of Personal Information (if any), which may be shared by you on such third party web domains. We encourage you to ask questions and to be very cautious before you disclose your Personal Information to others.
We use cookies to collect the information we need to optimise the product/Merchant links we monetise/create, and improve the service we provide to Publishers and to Users. However, Roots Digital does not drop any third-party cookie within its own JavaScript, so Users can be certain that their data and privacy is being protected in the manner provided herein.
In order for referral fees and commissions to be paid by Merchants to Publishers, Roots Digital works with affiliate networks and other ad networks that manage the direct Merchant relationships. Users who receive Roots Digital’ cookies are assigned an ‘anonymous/unique identifier number’. When a User clicks on a link created by our products, Roots Digital attaches the User’s anonymous identifier number, so it passes to the appropriate affiliate network for the purpose of tracking whether that User makes a purchase on the Merchant website they visit. Such information is used only for the purposes of optimizing the service provided to the User. The affiliate and ad networks that work with Roots Digital also use their own cookies in order to track if a sale has occurred, as most of these parties will only pay Roots Digital when a referral through the Publisher has been successful, i.e. a sale was completed. We do not have control over or access to these cookies and they are dropped by the affiliate and ad networks via the Publisher websites and Publisher toolbars.
