This Cookie Policy explains how RC IT Services (“we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website.
It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains more generally how we collect, use and protect personal information.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites can store on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other device when you visit them.
Cookies can perform a variety of functions, including helping websites operate correctly, remembering preferences and providing information about how visitors use a website.
Similar technologies may also be used to store or access information on your device. References to “cookies” in this policy include similar technologies where appropriate.
How we use cookies
RC IT Services uses cookies and similar technologies to:
Operate and secure our website
Remember cookie and privacy preferences
Understand how visitors use our website
Measure website traffic and performance
Identify which pages and content are useful to visitors
Help us improve our website, services and user experience
You do not need to accept non-essential cookies to access the main content of our website.
Strictly necessary cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are required for our website to function correctly or to provide features that you request.
They may be used for purposes such as website operation, security and remembering your cookie preferences.
Because these cookies are necessary for the operation of the website or services you request, they may be used without your consent where permitted by law.
Analytics and performance cookies
With your permission, we use analytics technologies to understand how visitors interact with our website.
The information collected may help us understand:
Which pages are visited
How visitors move around the website
How visitors arrived at the website
Approximate geographic information
The type of device or browser being used
General website usage and performance
We use this information to understand the effectiveness of our website and improve its content, structure and services.
These cookies are non-essential and are subject to the cookie choices available through our website.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4, a website analytics service provided by Google, to help us understand how our website is used.
Google Analytics may process information relating to your use of our website, such as pages viewed, interactions with the website, device and browser information, approximate location information and information about how you reached our website.
We use Google Analytics to analyse website performance and visitor behaviour in aggregate and to help us improve our website and services.
Our Google Analytics integration is configured through Squarespace and works with our website's cookie consent controls. Your consent choices are communicated to Google using Google's consent mechanisms supported by Squarespace.
You can decline non-essential cookies or manage your preferences using the cookie controls provided on our website.
For more information about how Google handles personal information, please see Google's Privacy Policy:

Squarespace
Our website is built and hosted using Squarespace.
Squarespace uses cookies and similar technologies to operate websites hosted on its platform and provide functionality, security and analytics features.
Some Squarespace cookies may be strictly necessary for the website to operate, while other cookies may be used for analytics or other non-essential purposes depending on the features enabled on our website.
Where applicable, non-essential cookies are controlled through the cookie consent settings available on our website.

Third-party services
Some features of our website may rely on services provided by third parties.
These services may use cookies or similar technologies when you interact with their content or functionality.
Where a third-party service uses non-essential cookies that are controlled by our cookie consent system, those technologies will be subject to your cookie preferences.
Some third-party services may operate their own cookie or privacy mechanisms. Their processing of information is also governed by their respective privacy and cookie policies.
We will review this policy when introducing significant new third-party services that affect how cookies or similar technologies are used.
Your cookie choices
When you first visit our website, you are presented with options to control the use of non-essential cookies.
You can choose:
Accept All — Allow the use of non-essential cookies.
Decline All — Reject non-essential cookies.
Manage Cookies — Choose which categories of non-essential cookies you wish to allow.
Strictly necessary cookies may still operate because they are required for the website or requested services to function.
You can change your choices later using the Cookie Preferences option available on our website.
You may also be able to control or delete cookies using your web browser. Please be aware that blocking certain necessary cookies or technologies through your browser may affect how parts of the website function.
How long cookies remain on your device
The length of time a cookie remains on your device depends on the particular cookie.
Some are session cookies, which are removed when you close your browser.
Others are persistent cookies, which remain for a defined period or until they are deleted.
Cookie durations may also change when Squarespace, Google or another service provider updates its technology.
You can remove stored cookies at any time using your browser settings.
International data processing
Some of the technology providers we use, including Google and Squarespace, operate internationally.
This means information processed through their services may be transferred to or processed in countries outside the United Kingdom.
Where personal data is transferred internationally, appropriate safeguards or other lawful transfer mechanisms will be used where required by applicable data protection law.
Further information about how we handle personal information and international transfers can be found in our Privacy Policy.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to:
The cookies and technologies used on our website
Services or third-party integrations we use
Our website functionality
Applicable legal or regulatory requirements
When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this policy.
