What Data We Collect and Why
Analytics Data
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site. The data collected includes:
- Pages visited and time spent
- General location (country/city level — not precise location)
- Device type, browser, and operating system
- How you arrived at our site (referral source)
Lawful basis: Legitimate interests (understanding site usage to improve content), subject to your consent for cookies where required under Irish ePrivacy Regulations (SI 336 of 2011).
This data is aggregated and anonymised. We do not collect personally identifiable information through analytics.
Affiliate Tracking Data
When you click an affiliate link on this site, the Awin affiliate network may set a tracking cookie in your browser. This cookie:
- Records that you arrived at a retailer via our site
- Enables commission to be attributed if a purchase is made

Lawful basis: Consent (you accept this when you consent to cookies on our site).
Awin processes this data as an independent data controller. See Awin’s Privacy Policy for details.

We use the following types of cookies:
| Cookie type | Purpose | Required? |
|---|---|---|
| Analytics (Google Analytics) | Understanding site usage | No — consent required |
| Affiliate tracking (Awin) | Tracking referrals for commission | No — consent required |
Under Irish ePrivacy Regulations, non-essential cookies require your consent before being set. We aim to implement a cookie consent mechanism to comply with this requirement.
You can control cookies through your browser settings at any time. Disabling analytics cookies will not affect your ability to use this site. Disabling affiliate cookies means we will not receive commission on purchases, but you will still be able to visit retailer sites.
