MOOT CORP® (“we,” “us,” or “the editorial desk”) operates the website at mootcorp.org. This policy explains what information we collect, how it is used, and the choices available to you.

1. Information we collect

We collect a minimum of information necessary to publish, distribute, and respond to readers:

• Email address — if you subscribe to our quarterly newsletter or write to the editorial desk.
• Standard server logs — IP address, user agent, referring page, and timestamps, retained for security and aggregate readership analysis.
• Optional voluntary information — name, affiliation, and any contextual notes you include in correspondence with us.

2. How we use information

• To send the quarterly newsletter to subscribers who have requested it.
• To respond to editorial pitches, archival inquiries, and corrections.
• To monitor site performance, security, and aggregate readership patterns.
• To comply with applicable legal obligations.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your information to third parties.

3. Cookies and similar technologies

mootcorp.org is a static publication and does not set tracking cookies for advertising purposes. Privacy-respecting analytics may be used to count page views in aggregate, without setting persistent identifiers in your browser.

4. Third-party services

Newsletter delivery, contact forms, and content hosting may be performed by reputable third-party providers acting as data processors on our behalf. These providers are contractually required to handle your information in accordance with applicable privacy laws and only for the purposes described above.

5. Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or export your personal information, and to object to or restrict its processing. To exercise any of these rights, write to finals@mootcorp.org. We will respond within a reasonable period and at no cost.

You may also unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link included in every issue.

6. Data retention

Subscriber email addresses are retained until you unsubscribe. Editorial correspondence is retained as long as is reasonably necessary for the project’s purposes or as required by law. Server logs are retained for a limited period for security and diagnostic purposes.

7. Security

We apply reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect information from loss, misuse, and unauthorised access. No system, however, is perfectly secure; please use discretion when sending sensitive material by email.

8. Children

The site is intended for adult readers and graduate-level audiences and is not directed at children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

9. International transfers

We are an international editorial project. Your information may be processed in jurisdictions other than your own, with appropriate safeguards in place where required by law.

10. Changes to this policy

We may revise this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected in the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after a change constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
