Using Our Website & Cookie Policy

This cookie policy relates to www.downsyndromecork.ie and any of its subdomains. 

What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that may be stored on your computer or mobile device that contains data related to a website you visit. It may allow a website “remember” your actions or preferences over a period of time, or it may contain data related to the function or delivery of the site. Cookies can be set by the owner of the website or in some cases by third party services the website owner allows to present other information, run content or provide other functionality such as analytics.

How are they used on this site?
When you first visit this website, you will see a cookie consent message.  If you click the ‘Accept Cookies’ button, a cookie will be set that records your preference of agreeing to the use of all cookies.  There are certain necessary cookies that will always need to be turned on to allow the website to function as expected.  Our default setting is to only have the necessary cookies turned on.

Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are necessary to deliver our services and the website needs them to function properly. For instance, they make it possible for you to continue to browse through the website while keeping things in your shopping cart.  These cookies will always be turned on.  

Third party cookies
By clicking on buttons or links to third party sites or services, you will be redirected to an external site, which has its own cookie and privacy policies over which we have no control. For example, we use https://stripe.com as our payments provider.  Stripe has its own cookies.  We also have videos on our website and the video host may use cookies to measure how you view the videos.  You can opt out of the third party cookies without affecting how you visit www.downsyndromecork.ie.
