Corás Digital (referred to as we, us or our) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store and protect your personal data when you visit corasdigital.ie or contact us, and it sets out your rights. We process personal data in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and the Irish Data Protection Acts 1988 to 2018.

When you complete our contact form or otherwise get in touch with us, we may collect the following information: your name, your email address, your phone number, details about your business and your enquiry, and the service you are interested in.
Information we collect automatically
When you visit our website, we and our service providers may automatically collect limited technical information, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, the pages you view and the website you came from. This information is collected through cookies and similar technologies, as described below.
How we use your personal data and our legal basis
We use your personal data for the following purposes, relying on the following legal bases under the GDPR:
- To respond to your enquiry and provide the quotes or information you request — to take steps at your request before entering into a contract, and our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries.
- To provide our services where you become a client — to perform our contract with you.
- To operate, improve and secure our website and understand how it is used — our legitimate interests, and your consent where required for non-essential cookies.
- To send follow-up or marketing communications, only where you have requested them or otherwise consented — your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
- To meet our legal obligations — compliance with a legal obligation.
Cookies
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies. Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function. Non-essential cookies, such as analytics cookies that help us understand how visitors use the site, are only used with your consent, in line with the Irish ePrivacy Regulations (S.I. No. 336 of 2011). You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings and through any cookie consent options provided on our website.
How we share your personal data
We do not sell your personal data. We may share it with trusted third parties who provide services to us (our data processors), such as our website hosting provider, our email provider, and our website analytics provider. These parties process personal data on our behalf and under appropriate data protection agreements. We may also disclose personal data where we are required to do so by law.
Transfers outside the European Economic Area
Some of our service providers may process personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Where this happens, we take steps to ensure your data is protected by appropriate safeguards, such as a European Commission adequacy decision or Standard Contractual Clauses.
How long we keep your personal data
We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this policy. Enquiry information is generally kept for up to 24 months after our last contact with you, unless you become a client or we are required to keep it for longer to meet a legal obligation.
Your rights
Under data protection law, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data: the right to access your data; the right to have inaccurate data corrected; the right to have your data erased; the right to restrict processing; the right to object to processing; the right to data portability; and, where our processing is based on consent, the right to withdraw that consent at any time. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at info@corasdigital.ie.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Commission, the supervisory authority for data protection in Ireland, if you believe your data protection rights have not been respected. You can find their contact details at www.dataprotection.ie.
Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or alteration. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Privacy of children
Our website and services are not directed at children. In Ireland, the digital age of consent is 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 16.
