Privacy Policy

Root + Reef Interiors (“we,” “us”) operates the website rootandreefinteriors.com, an editorial site that publishes interior-design guides and product recommendations. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the site you agree to the practices described here.

Information we collect

We collect standard web analytics data, including the pages you visit, the referring URL or platform that brought you here, your approximate location (city or region level), device and browser type, and how you interact with our pages. If you contact us through our contact form, we collect the name, email address, and message you choose to provide. We do not ask for or store sensitive personal information, and we do not process payments on this site.

Cookies and affiliate attribution

We use cookies and similar technologies for website analytics and for affiliate link attribution. Root + Reef Interiors is a participant in the Amazon Associates Program and other affiliate programs, which means we may earn a commission when you click a product link and make a qualifying purchase. When you click an affiliate link, the affiliate network may set its own cookies to credit the referral; that data is governed by the respective network’s privacy policy, not ours.

Third-party services

We rely on a small set of third-party providers to run and distribute the site, and each processes data under its own privacy policy:

• Analytics. We use Google Analytics to understand aggregate, non-identifying usage patterns.
• Hosting. Our site is served by our hosting provider, which processes standard server request logs.
• Affiliate networks. Amazon and other affiliate programs handle referral tracking and any resulting purchase on their own platforms.
• Social platforms, including Pinterest.We publish and share our own content on social platforms such as Pinterest. When you discover our content through, or interact with it on, one of these platforms, that platform processes your data under its own privacy policy. Our use of the Pinterest API and other platform APIs is limited to publishing our own editorial content and reviewing aggregate performance of that content, and complies with each platform’s developer terms and policies.

How we use information

We use the information we collect to operate and improve the site, understand which content is useful, attribute affiliate referrals, respond to messages you send us, and keep the site secure. We do not sell personal information, and we do not run retargeting ads on this site.

Your choices and rights

You can control or block cookies through your browser settings. You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of any personal information we hold about you by reaching out through our contact form. We will respond to reasonable requests in line with applicable privacy laws.

Children’s privacy

This site is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
