Rooting simply means that you gain write permission to those system files (the root folder which you may browse without actually rooting your device by just using a File explorer which supports it e.g. ES File Manager) which were originally meant only for reading (for a general user).

When you “root” your phone you are unlocking the administrative privileges of the phone. But it happens only if the process completed successfully. In order to avoid losing all the data, don’t do it by yourself. That’s why it’s essential to apply to expert. I recommend this service https://safe-root.com/
