Privacy and Terms

NewRoots is a free tool with no sign-up. This page explains, in plain English, what data is involved, how affiliate links work, and the terms of use. Last updated June 18, 2026.

Privacy

NewRoots has no accounts and no login. We do not ask for your name, email, or any personal profile, and we do not build one.

What stays on your device

The app runs mostly in your browser. Your recent lookups and preferences are saved locally on your device (in your browser's storage) to keep things fast. That data stays on your device and is not sent to us.

What is sent to our server

• The Lingo and Cruisin' tools send the term or country you enter to our server, which asks an AI provider (Anthropic) to generate the answer. Answers are cached to keep the service fast and low cost. These requests are not tied to your identity.
• The Greenbacks tool fetches live currency rates from a public rates feed through our server.
• We use Cloudflare to host the app and Cloudflare Turnstile to block bots. Turnstile may set a token to confirm you are a real person.
• Flag images and fonts load from third-party services (flagcdn.com and Google Fonts).

Affiliate links and cookies

Some outbound links to partner services (for example money transfer or credit cards) are affiliate links. If you click one and then sign up or buy, we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. When you click an affiliate link, the partner and our affiliate network (such as Impact, Partnerize, CJ, FlexOffers, or Sovrn) may set cookies or use similar identifiers to credit the referral. We label these links where they appear.

Your choices

You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings at any time, and you can use the offline tools (Flip It, Kicks, Threads) without any server calls. NewRoots is not directed at children under 13. Questions: info@tnc-usa.com.

Terms of Use

NewRoots is provided free and "as is," for general information and convenience. Conversions, tax estimates, exchange rates, size charts, and AI answers may be approximate or occasionally wrong, so please verify anything that matters before relying on it, especially financial, legal, tax, immigration, or driving decisions. Nothing here is professional, financial, legal, or tax advice.

Affiliate links may earn us a commission. We only feature services we consider relevant to newcomers, but we do not control them and are not responsible for their products, pricing, or terms. Your dealings with any partner are between you and them.

To the fullest extent allowed by law, TNC Software LLC is not liable for any loss arising from use of this free app. By using NewRoots you accept these terms. We may update this page, and the date above shows the latest version.

NewRoots is operated by TNC Software LLC, a US software company. Contact: info@tnc-usa.com.
