Cookie Policy

What are cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies are small text files a website can store in your browser. “Similar technologies” includes things like localStorage, a browser storage mechanism that works differently from a cookie (it's not sent to a server automatically) but can serve a similar purpose, like remembering a preference.

Categories, and what's currently active

• Strictly necessary — technologies required for the site to function at all. Ireland Spots currently doesn't need to set a cookie for this purpose; the site works without one.
• Analytics — would help us understand how the site is used. Not currently active. No analytics cookie is set, and no analytics script loads.
• Advertising — would support ads or personalised advertising. Not currently active. No advertising cookie is set, and no advertising script loads.

In short: this site sets no analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking cookies today.

If that changes

Analytics or advertising cookies will not be switched on without a consent banner first, letting you Accept all, Reject all, or Manage preferences for each category separately, and change your mind at any time. This policy will be updated to name the exact cookies, their purpose, and how long they last, before either category is switched on.

Browser storage

Some interface preferences — such as a cookie choice you've made, once the consent banner above is active — are stored locally in your browser using localStorage rather than a cookie. This stays on your device, is not sent to us, and is not used to identify or track you across sites.

Managing or withdrawing your choice

You can control cookies at any time through your browser's own settings. Once analytics or advertising cookies are ever switched on here, you'll also be able to accept, reject, or change your choice at any time via a “Cookie settings” control in the site footer — withdrawing consent will be exactly as easy as giving it.
