Cookie Policy.
Last updated: 3 August 2026.
This page explains exactly what this website stores on your device. It is short, because the answer is: very little.
What we store
One item, and only if you interact with the cookie banner. When you choose "Accept All" or "Reject Non-Essential", your choice is saved in your browser's local storage under the name iv_cookie_consent, so you are not asked again on every page. It contains nothing but that choice. It is not a tracking cookie, it is not sent to us, and it is not shared with anyone.
Analytics cookies
With your permission, we use Google Analytics to understand how this site is used, for example which guides people read and where visitors arrive from. These cookies are only set if you choose "Accept All" on the cookie banner. If you choose "Reject Non-Essential", or if you have not answered the banner yet, Google Analytics is never loaded at all, so no analytics cookies are set and no data is sent. Google Analytics is provided by Google Ireland Limited, and data may be processed outside the European Economic Area under standard contractual clauses.
What we do not store
We do not use advertising cookies, we do not run any third party tracking pixel, and we do not build a profile of you. We do not sell or share analytics data with anyone.
Third party services
This site is hosted by Netlify, which keeps standard server logs including IP addresses, and may set a cookie of its own for load balancing. Web fonts are served from this website itself, so your browser does not contact Google to load them. If you submit the consultation form or request a free guide, your details are handled as described in our Privacy Policy.
Your control
You can clear the saved preference at any time through your browser settings, under site data or local storage for isavalentic.ie. Clearing it will make the banner appear again on your next visit. You can also block or delete cookies generally through your browser settings, though this may affect how some websites work.
