Ronald McDonald House South Dakota, Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website to support website functionality, understand how visitors use our website, and measure advertising activities.
This Cookie Policy explains what these technologies are, how we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.
Cookies are small text files stored on your computer, phone, or other device when you visit a website. They can help a website remember information about your visit, maintain certain functions, and recognize your browser when you return.
We may also use similar technologies, including pixels, tags, scripts, and other identifiers, to understand website activity or measure interactions with online content.
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and use our website. We also use online advertising technologies that may include Google Ads remarketing, Meta Pixel, or related services, depending on which tools are enabled on our website.
These technologies may collect information about your browser, device, pages visited, interactions with website content, and referral sources.
Depending on the service and its configuration, these technologies may help us understand website performance, measure advertising campaigns, create advertising audiences, or deliver relevant advertisements.
The specific information collected and the technologies used depend on the services operating on our website.
Our website may use the following categories, depending on the features and services enabled.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies help the website function properly, maintain security, and provide features you request. They may support basic navigation, forms, or other essential functions.
Functional Cookies
These cookies may remember preferences or choices to make the website easier to use.
Analytics Cookies
These technologies help us understand website traffic and how visitors interact with our pages. We use Google Analytics for website measurement and analysis.

Third-Party Technologies
Some features or services may be provided by third parties. Depending on how those services are implemented, they may use their own cookies or similar technologies.
The categories and technologies actually operating on our website may change as we update our website and services.
Google Analytics and our advertising providers may collect information through cookies or similar technologies when you visit our website.
The information collected, the purposes for which it is used, and the available controls depend on the provider and its configuration.

Third-party providers may process information under their own privacy policies and terms.
Some cookies expire when you close your browser. Others remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.
The duration of a cookie depends on its purpose and the provider that sets it. Cookie durations may vary across the services used on our website.
If our website offers cookie preference settings, you can use them to manage the categories of cookies and similar technologies you allow. Where applicable, you can also change or withdraw your choices.
Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to block cookies, delete stored cookies, or receive alerts when websites attempt to place them on your device. Refer to your browser’s help section for instructions.
