Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

The short version: we collect basic website analytics so we can understand how people find us and improve the site. We don't sell your data, we don't share it with advertisers, and we keep things as simple as possible.

Who we are

Common Roots CT is a nature-based school for young children located in Glastonbury, Connecticut, opening Fall 2026. Our website is commonrootsct.com. You can reach us at info@commonrootsct.com.

What we collect and why

When you visit our website, we use Google Analytics 4 to collect anonymous information about how people use the site. This includes:

Pages visited, how long you spent on each page, what device and browser you used, your approximate location (city level, not your address), and how you found our site (for example, through a search engine or a QR code at an event).

We use this information only to understand what's working on our site and how we can make it more useful for families. We do not use it for advertising.

Interest forms

If you fill out our founding family interest form, we collect your name and email address. We use this only to send you updates about Common Roots CT — enrollment timelines, events, and school news. We will never share your contact information with anyone else.

You can ask us to remove you from our list at any time by emailing info@commonrootsct.com.

Cookies

Google Analytics uses cookies — small text files stored in your browser — to distinguish between visits. These cookies do not identify you personally. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking at any time using Google's opt-out tool.

Your rights under Connecticut law

Connecticut's Data Privacy Act (CTDPA) gives you the right to know what personal data we hold about you, to correct it, and to ask us to delete it. If you'd like to exercise any of these rights, email us at info@commonrootsct.com and we'll respond within 30 days.

Third-party services

We use the following services to run our site:

Google Analytics — website traffic analytics. Google's privacy policy.

Netlify — website hosting and form processing. Netlify's privacy policy.

Children's privacy

Our website is intended for parents and guardians, not for children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13.

Changes to this policy

If we make any meaningful changes to this policy, we'll update the date at the top of this page. We don't anticipate making frequent changes — we like to keep things simple.

Questions

If you have any questions about this policy or how we handle your information, please reach out. We're a small family-run school and we're happy to talk.
