Terms and privacy
The short version: roow is new and changing quickly. Use it, tell us what breaks, and don’t rely on it for anything you can’t afford to set up again.
roow is run by Arvind Ram Anantharam, an individual. “We” and “us” on this page mean Arvind Ram Anantharam.
roow is early
Please read this part.
- roow is an early product. Features can change, move or be removed at any time, sometimes without notice.
- Your setup can be lost. Connections, tokens, policies, jobs, files and history may be reset or deleted while we change how roow works. Keep your own copy of anything you can’t recreate.
- roow can be slow or unavailable. There is no uptime promise yet.
- It is free to use for now. That may change; we’ll tell you before you’re charged for anything.
Terms
By signing in to roow you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use it.
Your account
- You sign in with GitHub or with an email link. Keep access to that account secure: whoever has it can use your workspace.
- You’re responsible for what happens in workspaces you own or administer, including what your teammates and their agents do there.
Your databases are yours
- You choose which databases to connect and what roow and your agents may do with them. Only connect databases you’re allowed to.
- roow runs the queries and changes your agents ask for, within the rules you set. Agents can be wrong. Review what you approve, and start read-only.
- Keep your own backups. roow’s guardrails reduce risk, they don’t remove it. We aren’t responsible for changes made to your database, including ones you or a teammate approved.
Please don't
- Use roow for anything illegal, or to harm others.
- Try to get into workspaces, databases or data that aren’t yours.
- Overload roow, or try to get around its limits or security.
We may suspend or close an account that does, or that puts other people at risk.
No guarantees
- roow is provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind.
- As far as the law allows, we’re not liable for lost data, lost profits, or indirect damages from using roow.
- You can stop using roow at any time. We can stop offering it, or any part of it, at any time.
Open source
- roow is built on Gantry, which is open source under its own licence. These terms cover the hosted roow service, not the Gantry code.
Privacy
We keep what roow needs to work, and nothing to sell. We don’t sell your data, and we don’t use it to train AI models.
What we keep
- Your account: your GitHub username, name and avatar, or your email address, and your verified email addresses.
- Your connections: database addresses and passwords, encrypted before they’re stored.
- Your workspace: members, roles, policies, tokens (stored so they can’t be read back), jobs and approval settings.
- History: every query and change an agent asks for — the SQL, who asked, when, what was decided, and how many rows it touched.
- Files: exports and files you or your agents save, encrypted.
- Slack: if you connect it, the workspace and channel roow posts to, and the Slack accounts people link.
Your database's data
- Query results pass through roow to your AI tool and aren’t stored, unless you save them as an export or file.
- Your AI tool — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor or another — sees whatever results it asks for. How it handles them is covered by that tool’s own terms.
Who helps run roow
- Railway hosts the service and its files, Vercel hosts the website, and Supabase hosts roow’s own database, all in the United States.
- Resend sends our emails. GitHub signs you in if you choose it. Slack carries approvals if you connect it.
- They process data only to provide these services, and their logs may include things like your IP address.
Cookies
- One cookie keeps you signed in, and a short-lived one protects sign-in. No advertising or tracking cookies.
Your choices
- Remove a connection, file or teammate at any time from your workspace.
- To see what we hold about you, or to have your account and data deleted, email arvindram03@gmail.com.
- Remember that roow is early: data can also be lost or reset while it changes (see above).
Changes and contact
- These terms will change as roow does. The date at the top says when they last changed. Using roow after a change means you accept the new version.
- Questions, problems or a deletion request: arvindram03@gmail.com.
