Privacy

This Privacy Policy applies to rootdo.com (.org .net) and all subdomains

Individual services hosted on their subdomains usually have their own Privacy Policies which will differ from this here. If that is the case, this Privacy Policy applies only to that particular service/subdomain and not itself.
The policies may change at any time without prior notice (especially when new services are added or removed).
No identifiable data is shared with any third party, unless initiated by the user, required for combating abuse, or operationally necessary.
Some services require the use of cookies and/or local storage which are required to provide you with the service (such as remembering user preferences) and are not collected by anyone. None of the services use any kind of third-party cookies if not otherwise mentioned.

Data collected by the operator

  • Proxy & Server access logs
    • Access logs are set to discard. No logs are kept.
    • IPs are checked with intrusion detection systems at service logs to prevent abuse.
    • The only metrics that get viewed at, in real-time for troubleshooting are via netdata monitoring
    • https://github.com/netdata/netdata locally on the server. No user data or logs are saved or kept. Container Services can be looked at in real-time to determine if some sort of abuse or attack is happening. IPs may be looked at in real-time.

Vaultwarden

  • The entire service is End-to-end encrypted and therfore no data is visible to anyone but the user itself.
  • Password hints are visible to the Server owner. Be aware of that when choosing to use this option.
  • This Vaultwarden instance is self-hosted and not in any way an official service by Bitwarden or the Vaultwarden project.

  • Email registration and Informations are sent with an SMTP service ( https://www.smtp2go.com/ ) it is a well known service used by many big companies and developers. Reasoning is, that self-hosted SMTP servers very often get blacklisted by major Email services.

  • Files are purged every 10 days
