How we use cookies
We use cookies to enhance your experience on our site and to ensure the proper functioning of our services. Cookies remember your preferences, make signing in easier, enable traffic analysis and help personalise content and offers. Some cookies contribute to security and fraud detection, while others are used for advertising targeting. By accepting or configuring your consent you control their use. For more details and to change your choices, see our Cookie Policy and your browser settings.
Types of cookies we use (Strictly necessary, Performance, Functional, Targeting)
Our Cookie Policy details the different types of cookies used on the site and their purpose for users in Ireland. We classify cookies into four main categories for greater transparency and control, so you can choose what you allow via the banner or settings.
- Strictly necessary: essential for the site’s operation and security.
- Performance: measure speed and improve the user experience.
- Functional: remember your preferences to personalise the interface.
- Targeting: enable relevant advertising and marketing analytics.
Third-party and partner cookies
Third-party and partner cookies come from domains external to the site and enable services such as analytics, advertising and social features. These cookies, managed by providers (Google Analytics, social networks, ad networks), sometimes collect data to build profiles and deliver targeted content. To understand which entities place cookies and for what purposes, consult our Cookie Policy. You can refuse these cookies via the banner, site settings or the preferences provided by each partner.
Cookie retention periods
Under our Cookie Policy, retention periods vary by cookie type. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period (from a few days to several years). For example, technical cookies often expire after 12 to 24 months, analytics cookies after 6 to 13 months, and advertising cookies up to 13 months or more depending on partners. You can manage these durations via settings or refuse cookies at any time.
How to manage, configure or disable cookies
You can manage, configure or disable cookies easily from your browser or via our consent banner. See the dedicated section of the Cookie Policy for the purpose and retention period of each cookie. To disable cookies, go to your privacy settings, delete existing cookies and block third-party cookies if desired. On mobile, change the app or browser settings. Note that completely disabling cookies may affect some site functions.
Changes to this policy
We may amend this Cookie Policy at any time to reflect technical, legal or commercial changes. Changes will be posted on this page with the update date and, where necessary, we will notify you via a visible notice on the site or by email. Your prior consent remains valid unless substantial changes occur; in that case we will request renewed consent.
