Cookie notice
Last updated: 27 August 2026 · ePrivacy Regulations (SI 336/2011) · Irish Data Protection Act 2018
GuestlinePortal uses cookies and similar storage on your device only where strictly necessary for the site to function, or where you have given consent through the cookie banner shown at the bottom of the screen on your first visit. This notice explains what we use and why.
· I ·Cookies we set by default
| Name | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| gp_cookie_v1 | Records your cookie preference so the banner is not shown again | 12 months |
| gp_cart_v1 (localStorage) | Stores the modules in your basket until you check out | Until cleared |
| gp_csrf | Cross-site request forgery protection for form submissions | Session |

· II ·Cookies set only with your consent
| Name | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| gp_analytics_v1 | Aggregate page-view analytics — no personal data — runs from an EU host | 13 months |
· III ·What we do not use
We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, LinkedIn Insight, Hotjar, Segment or any other third-party advertising or behavioural tracking cookie. We do not sell or share any data with advertising networks. All analytics is server-side and aggregated from an EU host with no personal identifiers.
· IV ·Managing your preferences
You can accept or decline non-essential cookies through the banner on your first visit. To change your choice later, clear the gp_cookie_v1 cookie in your browser settings and reload the page — the banner will reappear. You can also block cookies entirely in your browser; the site remains functional but sign-in and the basket will not persist across sessions.
· V ·Legal basis
Essential cookies are set on the basis of the ePrivacy Regulations (SI 336/2011) which permit cookies strictly necessary for a service explicitly requested by the user. Optional cookies are set on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR — consent, given through the banner.
· VI ·Contact
