Use of Cookies: Cookies are small files that are sent to your web browser and stored on your computer's hard drive. Their purpose is to help analyze web traffic. Rathbone Precision Metals may use cookies to customize your visit to the SITE and for other purposes to make your visit more convenient or to enable us to enhance our service.

Cookies will never be used to retrieve personal information from your computer for purposes that are unrelated to the SITE or your interaction with the SITE.

Clickstream: As you use the Internet, a trail of electronic information is left at each web site you visit. This information, which is sometimes referred to as "clickstream data", can be collected and stored by a web site's server.

Security: The security of your Personal Information is very important to us. Rathbone Precision Metals has put in place reasonable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard the information we collect. However, due to the inherent open nature of the Internet, it cannot be guaranteed that communications between you and us, or information stored on the SITE, or our servers, will be free from unauthorized access by third parties such as hackers and your use of the SITE demonstrates your assumption of this risk.
