How Your Information Is Shared

I do not sell or rent your personal information.

I may share personal information with trusted third-party service providers where necessary to operate the website, communicate with you or provide my services. This may include website hosting, email, analytics, cloud storage and other business tools.

These providers may process personal information on my behalf or as independent data controllers, depending on the service they provide.

I may also disclose personal information where required by law, regulation or a valid legal request, or where necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal rights.

How Long I Keep Your Information

I keep personal information only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including to provide services, respond to enquiries and meet legal, accounting or tax requirements.

How long information is retained may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected. When personal information is no longer required, I will take reasonable steps to delete it or securely dispose of it.

You also have the right to make a complaint to the Data Protection Commission (DPC), Ireland's supervisory authority for data protection.

Cookies and Analytics

This website uses cookies and similar technologies to help it function properly and to understand how visitors interact with the site.

Some cookies are necessary for the website to operate and cannot be switched off through the website's cookie settings. Other, non-essential cookies may be used for purposes such as analytics and measuring website performance.

Where required, non-essential cookies will only be used with your consent. You can manage your preferences through the cookie banner or cookie settings available on the website.

You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect how some parts of the website function.

Third-Party Services and Links

This website may contain links to, or use services provided by, third-party websites and platforms.

Untypical Web Design may also use third-party platforms, including Meta platforms such as Facebook and Instagram, to collect enquiries or leads. Information submitted through these platforms may also be processed by the platform provider in accordance with its own privacy policy.

When you interact with a third-party service or follow a link to another website, that third party may collect and process information in accordance with its own privacy policy. Untypical Web Design does not control the privacy practices of third-party websites or services.

I encourage you to review the privacy information provided by any third-party service you choose to use.

Some third-party providers may process personal information outside Ireland or the European Economic Area (EEA). Where this occurs in connection with services used by Untypical Web Design, appropriate safeguards will be relied upon where required by applicable data protection law.

Data Security

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

However, no method of transmitting information over the internet or storing information electronically can be guaranteed to be completely secure. While I take reasonable steps to protect personal information, I cannot guarantee absolute security.

Where third-party services are used to operate the website or provide business services, those providers are responsible for the security of information processed through their systems in accordance with their own obligations and policies.

Children’s Privacy

This website and the services offered by Untypical Web Design are intended for adults and businesses and are not directed at children.

I do not knowingly collect personal information from children through this website. If you believe that a child has provided personal information through the website, please contact me so that I can take appropriate steps to remove it where required.

I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the website, my services, the way personal information is processed or applicable legal requirements.

Any changes will be published on this page, and the Last updated date at the top of the policy will be revised accordingly.
