Your choices
Your browser remembers your choice for 180 days; an expired choice is cleared the next time you visit. Open Cookie settings at any time to change your choice. Select Accept analytics to allow measurement or Reject analytics to keep it off or withdraw an earlier acceptance. You can also remove browser storage through your browser's site-data controls.
Google Analytics
When analytics is available and you accept it, Google Analytics measures page visits, traffic sources, clicks on quote and contact links or buttons, and successful enquiry submissions. Analytics events do not include form values, names, email addresses, or attachments.
The 180-day period above applies to the choice stored in your browser. It is separate from Google Analytics cookie lifetimes and Google's retention of measurement data. For details about Google's services and data practices, see its partner sites policy and Privacy Policy. Advertising and ad-personalization signals are disabled.

We will update this page when our use of cookies or similar technologies changes. External sites linked from amesmfg.com have their own privacy and cookie settings.
