Personal data must be processed lawfully, fairly and transparently, and we only use it where we have an appropriate legal basis under applicable data protection law.

Depending on the circumstances, we may process your personal information because:

  • It is necessary to take steps at your request before providing a service or to perform an agreement with you.

  • We have a legitimate interest in responding to enquiries, managing our business and protecting our website.

  • We need to comply with a legal obligation.

  • You have given your consent where consent is required.

Where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

5. Appointments and Communication

If you contact us by telephone, email or WhatsApp, the information you provide will be used to respond to your enquiry and, where applicable, arrange or manage your appointment.

If you use a third-party booking or communication service, your information may also be processed by that provider according to its own privacy policy.

6. Cookies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate correctly, remember preferences, understand website usage or provide third-party functionality.

Some cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function and may not require consent. Other cookies, including certain analytics, advertising or tracking cookies, will only be used where appropriate consent has been obtained. Irish Data Protection Commission guidance states that consent is normally required before non-essential cookies or similar tracking technologies are used.

Further information about the cookies used on this website can be found in our Cookie Policy and through the cookie settings available on the website.

7. Third-Party Services

Our website may use services provided by third parties, for example:

  • Website hosting providers

  • Online booking services

  • Google services such as Google Maps

  • WhatsApp

  • Website security or performance services

  • Analytics services, where enabled

These providers may process limited personal or technical information where necessary to provide their services.

Where third-party content requires cookies or other tracking technologies, it should only be activated in accordance with the visitor’s cookie preferences where consent is required.

8. How Long We Keep Your Information

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including providing our services, responding to enquiries and meeting legal or accounting requirements.

Information that is no longer required will be deleted or securely disposed of where appropriate.

9. How We Protect Your Information

We take reasonable organisational and technical measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

However, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
