Ramsey Solutions Privacy Policy
The Lampo Group, LLC d/b/a Ramsey Solutions (“Ramsey Solutions,” “we” “our” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy, and in doing so, we want to make sure that this Privacy Policy (“Policy”) is clear and concise enough for you to understand it. This Policy discloses our privacy practices and how we may use the information that we gather on our digital properties, including but not limited to: websites, online platforms, mobile applications, web services, services, and products owned by Ramsey Solutions (the “Sites”). We hope that as you read through the Policy, you will become comfortable using the Sites and learn how Ramsey Solutions is here to help you. Our intention was not to make this a lengthy Policy with pages of text for you to read through, but we wanted to make sure that you were given enough information to put your mind at ease about your privacy. After all, we created this Policy for the purpose of protecting your privacy and the information you provide to us.
By using our Sites or voluntarily providing personal information to us, you consent to the terms and conditions of this Policy. This Policy applies to information collected by our Sites and contains the following:
- A list of the categories of personally identifiable information we may collect from you through our Sites;
- How the information may be used and with whom it may be shared;
- What choices are available to you regarding our use of your data;
- The security measures in place to protect the misuse of your information;
- How you can correct any inaccuracies in the information collected; and
- Privacy rights for state specific residents.
Respecting the privacy and the security of your personal information is important to us. We realize that providing us with personal information is an act of trust. Therefore, we have created this Policy to show you the steps we have taken to maintain that trust and secure your information.

Geographic Restrictions
Our Sites and web-based services are intended for access and use within the United States only and comply with applicable United States privacy laws. Our Sites and web-based services are not intended for, or directed to, citizens, domiciles, or residents outside of the United States, including those of the European Union. By accessing our Sites and web-based services, you affirm that you are not a citizen, domicile, or resident of a country outside of the United States, including those of the European Union.
Do Not Track
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that you can set in some web browsers to inform websites that you do not want to be tracked. You can enable or disable DNT by visiting the preferences or settings page of your web browser. However, these features are not yet uniform, so we do not currently respond to such features or signals. Therefore, if you select or turn on a DNT feature in your web browser, we and our third-party providers may continue collecting information about your online activities as described in this Policy.
Cookies
“Cookies" are defined as small pieces of information (data files) that are downloaded to and stored by your browser or other application on your computer's, or other device’s, browser or hard drive when you use our Sites, which are unique to your device or account. Cookies make it easier for you to use our Sites by saving your preferences so that we can use these to improve your next and subsequent visits to our Sites. Cookies help us learn which areas of our Sites are useful and which areas need improvement. Cookies may be either persistent or temporary (or session) cookies. A persistent cookie retains user preferences for a particular website, app or service, allowing those preferences to be used in future use sessions and remains valid until its set expiry date (unless deleted by the user before the expiry date). A temporary cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed.
Cookies are used to connect your computer or other device with information stored about your online activity, searches, preferences, and product purchases, both within the same website visit and from one visit to the next, on our Sites and/or other websites. Some examples of the information cookies may store by your browser include your account preferences, user specific information on pages accessed, searched terms or addresses entered, and previous visits to the site. You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings on your browser or device. The "help" portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive new cookies, or how to disable cookies altogether. If you reject cookies, you may not be able to participate in certain activities or receive a promotion customized for you. Our Sites do not control and do not guarantee the effectiveness of browser-based tools for managing cookies. When we use cookies or similar technologies, we may set the cookies ourselves or ask third parties to do so.
Security
Ramsey Solutions is committed to keep your information private and secure. We use industry-standard security techniques on our Sites to help protect against the loss, misuse or alteration of information collected from you at our Sites. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure the security of the information you transmit to us. In this regard, we urge you to take every precaution to protect your personal data while you are on the Internet. At a minimum, we encourage you to make sure that you are using a secure browser as you surf the Internet.
Other Sites
Our Sites may contain links to third-party sites, including those of our business partners. If you click one of those links, you will be taken to websites we do not control. This Policy does not apply to the information practices of those third-party websites. You should read the privacy policies of third-party websites carefully. While we seek to link only to sites that share our high standards and respect for privacy and security, we are not responsible or liable for the content, privacy policies/practices, actions, or security of third-party websites or services.
