This Cookie Policy applies to the website https://www.retailassetsolutions.com (the “Website”), which is owned and operated by Retail & Asset Solutions Ltd (“we”, “us”, or “our”).

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, smartphone, or tablet by this Website when you visit certain pages and/or use specific interactive features. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, remember your user preferences, optimise platform performance, and provide analytical data to website operators.

How Do We Use Cookies?

Categories of Cookies We Deploy

3. Functionality Cookies

These are used to recognise you when you return to our platform, allowing us to remember choices you make (such as language or regional preferences) and provide a more personalised browsing experience.
