ROOTLOG
BETA
Structured NCRs. Recurring root causes, surfaced.
Local storage is blocked in this browser (private/incognito mode, or storage disabled) — entries logged now won't be saved after you close this tab. Switch to normal browsing to save data.
You haven't downloaded a backup recently — if this device is lost, this data goes with it.

Log a nonconformance

Every field here feeds the pattern view — root cause is picked from a fixed list, not typed freehand, so it can be counted later.
Ask: what would need to be true for this not to happen again? Write that in the detail field below — it becomes the corrective action.
Total cost of this NCR: £0.00

NCR register

Every nonconformance logged, newest first.

Recurring root causes

This is the view a spreadsheet doesn't give you: which root cause keeps coming back, and whether it's getting better or worse.

Root cause frequency — all time

Suppliers

NCRs tagged to a supplier, grouped — generate a SCAR with the evidence attached, ready to send back.

Corrective actions

Open items, owners, and due dates. Overdue actions are flagged.

Export

Pull the full register out for an auditor, a customer, or your own records.

Audit pack — Clause 10.2

One button, full nonconformity & corrective-action evidence bundle — dated, formatted, ready to hand the auditor or save as PDF.

Management review pack — Clause 9.3

Nonconformity trends, cost of poor quality, and supplier performance — the inputs this data can evidence for a management review.

Full backup

Every field, not just the CSV columns — a complete file ready to restore on a new device. This device is the only place this data exists, so keep a copy somewhere safe.

Import from spreadsheet

Bring in an existing NCR spreadsheet as a CSV. This is different from Restore above — a CSV can have any column layout, so you'll match its columns to RootLog's fields before anything is saved.

Or pull the raw register out directly.

Data on this device

Everything logged here is saved to this browser only — it isn't sent to a server. Export a CSV before clearing if you want to keep a copy.

Privacy notice

Last updated 2 August 2026 · RootLog Beta

What data RootLog collects, and where it goes

Everything you log — events, root causes, corrective actions, cost figures, any supplier name, and owner initials, employee number, or owner email you choose to enter — is stored only in this browser's local storage, on this device. RootLog deliberately asks for owner initials and employee number rather than a full name, to keep exposure of personal data to a minimum. RootLog has no server, no database, and no account system, so there is nowhere else for this to go. Nobody but someone using this same browser on this same device can see it.

Third parties

Google Fonts — this page loads typefaces from Google's font service, which may log your IP address as a normal part of serving that file. No other data is shared with Google.

Email (the "Chase" buttons) — these open your own device's email app with a message pre-filled. RootLog does not send this email itself and never sees your email account or its contents; that happens entirely within your own mail app and provider.

No analytics, no advertising, no tracking cookies, and no other third-party scripts are used.

Your control over this data

Export — the Export tab lets you download everything as a CSV at any time.

Delete — "Clear all data on this device" in the Export tab permanently erases everything RootLog has stored in this browser. Because nothing is held anywhere else, that erasure is complete — there's no separate copy on a server to also ask us to delete.

If this changes

RootLog is currently in beta. If a future version introduces optional shared or cloud storage — for multi-user use, for example — this notice will be updated first, and moving your data off-device will always be something you choose, not something that happens automatically.
