Understanding Our Use of Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet or phone) when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as browser local storage, pixels and scripts that read information from your device, work in the same way. In this policy we call them all “cookies”. Some are set by us (first-party cookies) and some are set by other companies whose services we use (third-party cookies).

When you first visit our websites, a banner asks which optional cookies you are happy for us to use. You can choose Accept all, Reject all or Preferences to choose individual categories. Rejecting is as easy as accepting, and rejecting optional cookies does not stop you using the website.

• Nothing optional runs until you agree. Optional tools, including Google Tag Manager, are not loaded, and no data is sent to them, until you give consent.
• You can change your mind at any time using Cookie settings, which is also linked in the footer of every page. If you withdraw consent, we delete the Google cookies stored on our websites for that category and reload the page, so those tools stop running straight away.
• Global Privacy Control. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat it as an opt-out of advertising cookies, and the Advertising option is switched off.
• We remember your choice for 180 days, then ask again. We also ask again if we make significant changes to the cookies we use.

• Strictly necessary: needed for the website to work and be secure, for example protecting the site from attacks, delivering images at the right size for your device and remembering your cookie choice. These do not need your consent and cannot be switched off.
• Analytics (optional): Google Analytics helps us understand how visitors use the website, such as which pages are viewed, which files are downloaded and which links are clicked, so we can improve our content.
• Advertising (optional): Google Ads helps us measure whether our adverts lead to enquiries and lets us show Ramtech adverts to people who have visited our website (remarketing). These cookies share data with Google.

• Google (Google Analytics, Google Ads and Google Tag Manager), only if you allow analytics or advertising cookies. Google receives information about your visit, such as pages viewed, clicks and downloads, device and browser type, an online identifier and your IP address, which Google uses to estimate an approximate location. For advertising, Google may also use this data under its own terms. Learn more about how Google uses data from websites that use its services.
• HubSpot, which receives the details you enter in our contact, quote and demo request forms when you press submit. HubSpot acts on our behalf and stores this data in its EU data centre. We do not use HubSpot tracking cookies on these websites.
• Sucuri, our website security firewall, which processes every request to our websites, including your IP address, to block attacks.

With your consent to analytics cookies, Google Analytics receives information about how you use our websites: the pages you view, the links and downloads you click, your device and browser type, an online identifier and your IP address. With your consent to advertising cookies, Google Ads receives similar information to measure and target our adverts. Google acts for us for analytics and may also use advertising data for its own purposes under its terms. Nothing is sent to Google until you consent, and it stops if you withdraw.

When you fill in a form, nothing you type is sent to anyone until you press submit. We do not use session recording, heatmaps, live chat or keystroke-recording tools on these websites.

If you live in California, the California Consumer Privacy Act (as amended by the CPRA) gives you rights over your personal information.

• Sharing for advertising. Our use of advertising cookies may count as “sharing” personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising. We only do this if you allow advertising cookies.
• Your right to opt out. You can opt out at any time by choosing Reject all, or by switching off Advertising in Cookie settings. We also honour Global Privacy Control signals as a valid opt-out.
• No sale of personal information. We do not sell personal information, and we do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of anyone under 16.
• Your other rights, and how to use them, are set out in our Privacy Statement. We will not treat you differently for exercising your rights.

The cookies used on these websites are listed below. Third-party cookies are set by the provider shown, and their durations are set by that provider. Some browsers limit cookies to a shorter period.

The easiest way is Cookie settings, also linked in the footer of every page, which lets you accept, reject or change each category at any time. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, but blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the website working. To find out more about cookies, visit www.aboutcookies.org or www.allaboutcookies.org.

For more about how we handle personal data, including international transfers and your rights, see our Privacy Statement.

We may update this policy to reflect changes to the cookies we use or for legal, operational or regulatory reasons. The date at the top shows when it was last updated. If we add new optional cookies, we will ask for your consent again.

If you have any questions about this policy or how we use cookies, email privacy@ramtechglobal.com or write to Ramtech Electronics Limited, Ramtech House, Castlebridge Office Village, Castle Marina Road, Nottingham NG7 1TN, United Kingdom.
