Rooty privacy policy

Last updated: September 24, 2026

1. Who we are

Rooty is an app published by IMTech (Ismael Moussaoui), which also publishes RangeLab. Contact: contact@rangelab.fr.

This policy explains what data the Rooty app processes, why, and what your rights are.

2. Without an account, almost nothing leaves your phone

You can use Rooty without an account. Your progress (XP, streak, completed lessons, settings) is then stored only on your device. Only the anonymous statistics and crash reports described below are sent, and you can turn statistics off.

3. If you create an account

  • Your name or nickname and your email address. With a password, it is stored hashed: we never know it. With “Sign in with Apple” or “Continue with Google”, we receive your name, email address and an account identifier from Apple or Google, never your password.
  • Your progress: XP, streak, freezes, active days, finished lessons (and perfect ones), exercises to review, daily quests, hearts, daily goal, welcome answers, chosen path, league, avatar, and your choice to appear on the leaderboard or not.

This data is used to save your progress, sync it across your devices and show the weekly leaderboard. Legal basis: providing the service you ask for.

4. Usage statistics

To improve the lessons, the app sends usage events: app opened, lesson started or finished, right or wrong answer, Premium screen shown, purchase. They are tied to a random identifier created at install, to the app's language, the region set on your phone and the app version, and to your account if you are signed in. An approximate country is derived from your IP address on receipt; the IP address itself is not stored.

You can turn them off at any time in Settings, Privacy. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in improving the service, with your right to object.

5. Crash reports

When the app crashes, a technical report is sent to Sentry (Functional Software, Inc.), hosted in the European Union: device model, system version (iOS or Android) and app version, and where in the code it happened. It contains neither your name, nor your email, nor your IP address.

6. Purchases

Payments are processed by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play): we never see your card details. Your subscription status is managed by RevenueCat, Inc., which receives a technical identifier and the purchase information sent by Apple or Google.

7. Reminders

Streak reminders are notifications scheduled on your phone. No notification token is sent to our servers.

8. What we don't do

No advertising, no tracking across apps or websites, no selling or renting of your data.

9. Retention

Your account and progress are kept as long as your account exists, then erased when you delete it. Usage statistics are kept for up to 24 months, crash reports for up to 90 days.

10. Your rights

You can access, correct, erase or get a copy of your data, or object to its processing, by writing to contact@rangelab.fr. You can delete your account directly in the app: Profile tab, “Delete my account”.

If you believe your rights are not respected, you can complain to your data protection authority (in France, the CNIL).

11. Minors

Rooty is an educational app suitable from age 12. If you are under the age of digital consent in your country, ask a parent before creating an account.

12. Changes

We will let you know in the app if this policy changes significantly.
