This site was created through the WIX Site Creator. We only collect information that you voluntarily give us via email, site forms, the check-out process, or other direct contact from you. We will not sell or rent this information to anyone.
We will use your information to respond to you regarding the reason you contacted us. We will not share your information with third parties outside of those used to conduct business with you on this website, and only in a manner that is necessary to fulfill your request, e.g., to ship an order, or fulfill contact for treatment.
Unless you ask us not to, we may contact you via email in the future to tell you about specials, new products or services, or changes to this privacy policy.
In addition, we collect the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet; login; e-mail address; password; computer and connection information and purchase history. We may use software tools to measure and collect session information, including page response times, length of visits to certain pages, page interaction information, and methods used to browse away from the page. We also collect personally identifiable information (including name, email, password, communications); payment details (including credit card information), comments, feedback, product reviews, recommendations, and personal profile.

3. Security
We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information on this website(s), your information is protected both online and offline.
Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as credit card data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a closed lock icon at the bottom of your web browser, or looking for "https" at the beginning of the address of the web page.
While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (e.g, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers on which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.
Our company is hosted on the Wix.com platform. Wix.com provides us with the online platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you. Your data may be stored through Wix.com’s data storage, databases and the general Wix.com applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall.
All direct payment gateways offered by Wix.com and used by our company adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

13. Consumption of Teas as sold by Bare Roots Energy
Tea packages are loose-leaf and will require a steeper to use in the kitchen. Tea is filled into a 3.5x5 sealed bag for shipping. Bags are typically recycled at your local grocery store or commons area. Each bag is labeled with the ingredients and weight of its contents; not all labels may be shown here. Each 3oz bag provides 10-15 single servings of tea when steeping in a typical-sized mug. Each 1oz bag provides 5-7 single servings of tea when steeping in a typical-sized mug. Steeping utensils and/or tea bags are not included in the purchase of tea packages.
Be aware that photos in the description will differ from the actual product due to lighting and due to the nature of the loose-leaf tea. When filling your steeping utensil with the loose-leaf tea, try to ensure that the mixture is thoroughly mixed and shaken up to provide the most continuity of the ingredients throughout the bag.
The one oz. Bags are a great way to test out the tea choices or to give as a gift. Please see the Chakra Tea Set listing for a full set of the Chakra Teas available. If you are seeking personalized teas or tea-based consultation, please head over to www.barerootsenergy.com to contact Jamelle or to schedule a consultation appointment.
Store teas in a dark, cool place. Steep teas only one time, and discard the contents once done. Please see the specific product information on steeping times for each tea.
Shipping
Shipping can take anywhere between 2-10 days, depending on the nature of the shipping industry. Shipping will take place through UPS Ground services, and they typically provide a guarantee of product arrival between 2-5 days. Processing time before shipping will take between 1-2 days if the tea is in stock and already prepared. If the tea is out of stock, you will receive a notification, and processing time will typically be extended by 2 days. If an ingredient is out of stock, the processing time will be extended by the amount of days it takes to have more of the ingredient shipped in. Thank you for your understanding in processing and shipping times.
This product is non-refundable. This product provides no guarantee of health and is not FDA-approved. The FDA does not regulate the sales of most herbal ingredients. Please visit my About page for more information about my credentials in this field. www.barerootsenergy.com/about.
