About this policy
This policy explains cookies and similar technologies on owelectricalservices.ie, operated by OW Electrical Services. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small files stored by your browser. Similar technologies include local storage, tags and pixels. They can support website functions, remember choices, analyse visits or measure advertising. Session cookies normally expire when you close your browser; persistent cookies remain until they expire or you delete them.
Technologies and services on this website
- Website operation and administration: WordPress and supporting website services can use cookies for login, security and preferences. Administrator login cookies are relevant to signed-in users, rather than being needed by every visitor.
- Analytics: Google tags and Google Site Kit are present to support measurement of website use. Depending on configuration and consent, analytics technologies can process device information, identifiers, pages visited and interactions.
- Advertising measurement: Google Ads tags and Google Tag Manager are present. Advertising tags can measure interactions and conversions and may use identifiers or cookies. Tag Manager manages tags; the purpose of a tag depends on the service deployed through it.
- Maps: embedded Google Maps helps visitors locate the business. Loading or interacting with a map can send technical information to Google and may involve Google’s cookies or other storage.
- Reviews: Trustindex content displays customer reviews. Loading third-party review content can send technical information, including an IP address, to its provider.
- Contact and social services: WhatsApp and social links provide optional ways to contact or visit us on other platforms. If you follow those links, the relevant platform’s own cookie and privacy rules apply.
Consent and your choices
Under Irish rules, cookies or similar technologies that are not strictly necessary generally require prior consent. The necessary-cookie exception is limited to technologies needed to provide a service you explicitly request. Simply browsing the website or reading this policy does not give consent to optional tracking.
Where a cookie preference control is provided, use it to accept or reject optional categories and revisit it to change or withdraw your choices. You can also manage cookies and site data in your browser’s privacy settings, including deleting existing cookies, blocking third-party cookies or blocking site storage. Browser controls differ; consult your browser’s help pages. Blocking cookies may affect some features.
Browser settings and this policy are not a substitute for a website consent mechanism. This page provides information; it does not itself block tags, record consent or change your browser settings.
Cookie duration and third-party information
The exact cookies and storage periods depend on the services loaded, their configuration, your choices and whether you are signed in to a provider. Check the site-data controls in your browser to inspect stored cookies and their expiry dates. Providers may update their technologies over time.
For more information, see Google’s information about cookies, Google’s Privacy Policy, Trustindex’s Privacy Policy and WhatsApp’s Privacy Policy. Ireland’s Data Protection Commission provides guidance on cookies and tracking.
