Cookies Policy/Personal Data Compliance
1. Introduction
This cookies policy applies to R.A.D Future Limited (R.A.D).
This cookies policy tells you about the use of cookies and similar technologies on https://uk.rad-global.com/ (the website). The website is intended for use by UK customers only. R.A.D operates related websites for customers located in the EU, USA and Australia. This policy does not apply to those websites.
R.A.D is committed to safeguarding the privacy and personal data of our customers and visitors to our website. In this notice we explain our use of cookies. Please see our privacy notice for more information relating to our use of your personal data.
We're giving you this information as part of our initiative to comply with legislation and make sure we're honest and clear about your privacy when using our website.
Like most businesses, our website uses “cookies” or similar technologies. When you first access the website, you will receive a message advising you that cookies and similar technologies may be in use. The default position is that most are disabled. You can choose to “ENABLE ALL” cookies or to “REJECT ALL” cookies.
If you choose to enable cookies and continue to browse the website, you signify that you understand and agree to the use of cookies, as described in this policy.
If you reject cookies you can continue to browse the website. The only cookies that will remain active are those that are strictly necessary, which are ones required to allow the website to operate (explained further below). Rejecting cookies may affect your experience of the website – e.g. some functionality or tailoring options may not be available.
2. What is a Cookie
A cookie is a small text file (letters and numbers) that are stored on your browser or the hard drive of your computer or mobile device. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer's/device’s hard drive.
Cookies set by a website owner (in this case, R.A.D) are called “first-party cookies”. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third-party cookies”. When they are used, third-party cookies enable us to provide third-party features or functionality through the website (e.g. advertising, sales/delivery support, payment processing or payment services, social media functions, analytics etc.).
Cookies may be either "persistent" cookies or "session" cookies. A persistent cookie is stored as a file on your computer/device and it remains there when you close your web browser and remains valid until its set expiry date, unless deleted by you before the expiry date. The cookie can be read by the website that created it when you visit that website again. We use persistent cookies for Google Analytics, for example.
A session cookie, on the other hand, expires at the end of your web session. These are only stored on your computer during your session and are automatically deleted when you close your browser – they usually store an anonymous session ID allowing you to browse a website without having to log in to each page, but they do not collect any personal data.
Cookies may not contain any information that personally identifies a visitor, but personal data that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.
Cookies are only used with your express consent. The default position is for them to be disabled (if you do not consent) apart from strictly necessary cookies, which must be enabled for the website to function.
If enabled, cookies allow the website to recognise your device and store some information about your preferences or past actions. You may enable all cookies or enable a selection only (as you choose).
As noted above, necessary cookies are always enabled. The following statements apply if you enable other cookies.
Our website uses cookies to distinguish you from other visitors to our website. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our website.
Cookies make the use of the website easier by, among other things, saving your preferences. We may also use cookies to deliver content tailored to your interests. Our cookies may enable us to relate your use of the website to personal information that you previously provided.
The information that we collect with cookies allows us to statistically analyse usage of the website, and to improve and customize our content and other offerings. However, we only disclose information collected with cookies to third parties on an aggregated basis without the use of any information that personally identifies you.
The specific types of first-party and third-party cookies placed by the website and the purposes they perform are described in the table below (see section 5, What do we use cookies for?).
4. Do I have to allow cookies to be used?
No. As stated in the introduction, cookies are normally disabled. At your choice, you can enable them and, if you change your mind, you can turn most of them off (known as disabling cookies).
All cookies apart from strictly necessary cookies can be disabled. If you disable cookies, that will mean that your experience of using our website won’t be to its full potential, as some of the cookies help us to identify and resolve errors or display relevant content and make your website experience richer.
Some browsers have cookies enabled, but you can change those settings in your browser preferences. You can also make changes directly on our website. See the ‘How do I manage my cookies?’ section to turn them on or off.
5. What do we use cookies for?
We use the following types of cookies:
· Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies that are required for the operation of our website. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into your account or a secure area of our website, place an order, use a shopping cart or make use of e-billing services. These cookies are necessary for the website to operate and therefore cannot be disabled.
· Functionality cookies. These are used to recognise you when you return to our website. This enables us to personalise our content for you and remember your preferences.
· Analytical or performance cookies. These allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our website when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way our website works – for example, by ensuring that website visitors and customers are finding what they are looking for easily.
· Targeting or advertising cookies. These cookies record your visit to our website, the pages you have visited and any links you have followed. We will use this information to make our website and any advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests. These cookies also prevent ads reappearing and ensure that ads are properly displayed. Certain third party cookies may track visitors over different websites.

7. Third party cookies
Please note that the following third parties may also use cookies, over which we have no control. These third parties may include, for example, advertising networks and providers of external services like web traffic analysis services. These third-party cookies are likely to be analytical or performance cookies or targeting cookies.
- YouTube
If you go on to a page on our website that contains embedded content, like YouTube or TikTok, you may be sent cookies from those operators/websites. We don't control the setting of those cookies, so please check the third-party websites for more information about their cookies and how to manage them.
If you'd like to opt out / deactivate the use of third-party advertising cookies, please go to the Network Advertising Initiative website (opens in a new window – please note that we're not responsible for the content of external websites).
You can learn more about cookies set by other companies on Your Online Choices (opens in a new window – please note that we're not responsible for the content of external websites).
As well as cookies, we use other technologies on the website. A web beacon (also known as a “tracking pixel” or “pixel tag”) is a clear/ transparent graphic image (typically a one-pixel tag) that is delivered through a web browser or HTML e-mail, sometimes/typically in conjunction with a cookie.
Web beacons allow us and/or our partners/providers to count visitors who have visited certain pages and to generate statistics about how our site is used – e.g. to monitor how visitors move from one page within our website to another, to track access to our communications, to understand whether visitors have come to our website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to measure how ads have been viewed and to improve site performance.
