2. What data we collect

IrishTaxTools.ie is designed to require minimal personal data. Specifically:

  • Calculator inputs: Numbers you enter into our calculators are processed entirely in your browser using JavaScript. They are not sent to our servers, stored, or logged in any way.
  • Analytics (if consented): If you accept cookies, we use Google Analytics 4 to collect anonymised data about pages visited, time on site, and general location (country/city level). We do not collect names or email addresses through analytics.
  • Cookies: We set a functional cookie (cookie_consent) to remember your cookie preference. If analytics cookies are accepted, Google Analytics sets its own cookies (_ga, _ga_*).
  • Contact: If you email us, we retain the content of that email and your email address for the purpose of responding to you.

3. Legal basis for processing

  • Analytics: Consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) — only set after you accept cookies.
  • Cookie consent preference: Legitimate interest — necessary to remember your preference and avoid showing the banner on every page.
  • Email correspondence: Legitimate interest — to respond to your enquiry.
