Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Ripple Reach ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit ripplereach.life (the "Website"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides additional information about how we handle personal data.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences, maintain session state, and understand how visitors use the site. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and pixel tags. In this policy, we use "cookies" to refer to cookies and comparable technologies unless stated otherwise.
2. How we use cookies
We use a minimal cookie approach on this Website. We do not deploy advertising cookies, third-party tracking pixels, or analytics cookies that profile users across sites. The categories we use are:
2.1 Essential cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the Website to function. They enable core features such as page navigation and access to secure areas. The Website cannot operate properly without these cookies. Because they are strictly necessary, they do not require consent under most privacy frameworks, though we still inform you about them here.
We do not currently set server-side session cookies for general browsing. Essential functionality is delivered through standard HTTP requests without persistent identifiers.
2.2 Functional storage (localStorage)
When you interact with our cookie consent banner, we store your preference in your browser's localStorage under the key rr_cookie_consent. This storage records whether you accepted all cookies or chose essential-only mode. It does not contain personal identifiers and is not transmitted to our servers. This preference persists until you clear your browser storage.
If you accept functional cookies, we load an embedded Google Maps iframe on our contact page to display our office location. Google may set its own cookies when the map loads. We load the map only after you provide consent through our banner. If you choose essential-only mode, the map remains hidden and a text address is displayed instead.
3. Cookies we do not use
To be explicit, this Website does not use:
- Advertising or retargeting cookies
- Social media tracking pixels
- Third-party analytics platforms such as Google Analytics
- Cross-site profiling or audience segmentation tools
- Chat widgets that track browsing behaviour
Google Ads may independently measure ad clicks and conversions through its own systems when you arrive via an advertisement. That measurement occurs within Google's infrastructure and is governed by Google's policies, not by cookies we set on this Website.
4. Third-party cookies
The only third-party content that may set cookies after your consent is the Google Maps embed on our contact page. Google's use of data is described in Google's Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. We recommend reviewing those documents if you choose to enable the map. We have no control over cookies set by Google once the embed is loaded.
5. Managing your preferences
When you first visit the Website, a cookie banner asks whether you accept all cookies (including the Google Maps embed) or prefer essential-only mode. You can change your preference at any time by clearing your browser's localStorage for ripplereach.life and refreshing the page — the banner will reappear.
Most browsers also allow you to block or delete cookies through settings. Note that blocking all cookies may affect Website functionality. Instructions for common browsers:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies
6. Updates to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when we change how the Website uses cookies or when legal requirements change. The "Last updated" date reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the Website after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
