Privacy Policy

Last updated: 14 August 2026

DublinDigit respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal data lawfully, fairly and transparently.

This Privacy Policy explains how personal data may be collected and processed when you visit dublindigit.ie (the "Website"), contact DublinDigit, request information about our services or enter into a business relationship with us.

This Policy should be read together with our Cookie Policy and Terms of Use.

1. Who is responsible for your personal data?

For personal data processed through the DublinDigit Website and our direct business activities, the relevant data controller is the person or legal entity operating under the DublinDigit name.

Legal/business name: Dublin Digit Limited

Trading name: DublinDigit
Address: Unit J2 Malahide Road Industrial Estate, D17 FR58, Dublin, Ireland
Email: info@dublindigit.ie

For privacy or data-protection enquiries, contact us at info@dublindigit.ie.

2. What personal data we may collect

The information we process depends on how you interact with DublinDigit.

Information you provide directly

When you contact us, request a quotation or submit an enquiry, we may receive information such as:

• your name;
• email address;
• telephone number;
• company or organisation name;
• job title or role where relevant;
• information about your website, project or business requirements;
• the contents of messages and enquiries you send to us; and
• any other information you choose to provide.

Please do not submit passwords, private keys, payment-card information or other highly sensitive credentials through ordinary Website enquiry forms.

Prospective-client information

When discussing a possible project or service, we may process:

• business contact details;
• project requirements;
• quotation and proposal information;
• correspondence;
• meeting or call information; and
• information reasonably required to assess or prepare the proposed work.

Customer information

If you become a DublinDigit customer, additional information may be processed where necessary for the business relationship, such as:

• contact and account-management information;
• agreed project specifications;
• contractual records;
• invoices and payment-status information;
• support communications;
• project history; and
• records necessary for accounting, legal or compliance purposes.

The exact information processed will depend on the service provided.

Technical and device information

When you access the Website, our hosting, security and technical systems may process information generated through ordinary internet communications, including:

• IP address;
• browser type and version;
• device type;
• operating system;
• requested URLs;
• date and time of requests;
• referral information;
• server and security logs; and
• information used to identify technical errors, abuse or security incidents.

Analytics information

Where Google Analytics 4 is operating on the Website, measurement information may include information about:

• pages viewed;
• approximate interaction times;
• events and Website interactions;
• device and browser characteristics;
• referral or traffic-source information; and
• general Website usage patterns.

The way Google Analytics operates depends on your analytics-cookie consent choice, as explained below and in our Cookie Policy.

3. Why we process personal data

We process personal data only where we have an appropriate purpose and legal basis.

Depending on the circumstances, purposes may include:

• operating, maintaining and securing the Website;
• responding to enquiries;
• preparing quotations or proposals;
• taking steps requested before entering into a contract;
• providing contracted services;
• communicating with clients;
• administering projects and customer relationships;
• maintaining business and accounting records;
• complying with legal obligations;
• preventing misuse, fraud or security threats;
• diagnosing technical problems;
• improving our Website and services; and
• measuring Website usage where permitted.

4. Legal bases for processing

Under the GDPR, different processing activities may rely on different legal bases.

Steps before entering into a contract

Where you ask DublinDigit to provide a quotation, assess a project or take another step with a view to entering into a contract, processing may be necessary to take steps at your request before entering into that contract.

Performance of a contract

Where you are a customer, we may process personal data where necessary to provide agreed services or otherwise perform our contractual obligations.

Legitimate interests

We may rely on legitimate interests where processing is necessary for a genuine business purpose and those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.

Relevant legitimate interests may include:

• responding to ordinary business enquiries;
• maintaining Website and network security;
• preventing misuse and fraud;
• maintaining appropriate business records;
• managing client relationships; and
• establishing, exercising or defending legal claims.

Where legitimate interests are relied upon, we consider the nature of the information, the purpose of processing and its potential impact on individuals.

Legal obligations

We may process information where necessary to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, accounting, taxation or other statutory obligations.

Consent

Where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

For example, analytics-cookie storage is controlled through the Website's consent mechanism.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before the withdrawal.

5. Google Analytics 4

DublinDigit uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to help understand Website usage and performance.

Our GA4 Measurement ID is:

G-QT31TEFNX7

DublinDigit uses Google Consent Mode to communicate analytics-storage consent choices to Google.

If you accept analytics cookies

If you choose Accept analytics cookies, the consent system may set:

analytics_storage = granted

Google Analytics may then use analytics cookies such as _ga and related GA4 cookies for measurement purposes.

Advertising-related consent remains denied unless DublinDigit introduces a separate advertising-consent mechanism and clearly asks for the relevant permission.

If you continue without analytics cookies

If you choose Continue without analytics cookies:

analytics_storage = denied

Google Analytics should not set, access or read analytics cookies on your device.

However, because DublinDigit is implementing Advanced Google Consent Mode, limited cookieless measurement requests may still be sent to Google while analytics storage remains denied.

These cookieless requests do not use GA4 analytics cookies but may contain information generated through ordinary web communications and measurement signals.

Google states that when analytics_storage is denied, Analytics cookies are not set, accessed or read, while cookieless pings may still be sent for measurement purposes.

We therefore do not describe the "without analytics cookies" choice as meaning that no analytics-related communication whatsoever occurs.

More detail is provided in our Cookie Policy.

6. Advertising consent

DublinDigit's current consent architecture keeps the following advertising-related Consent Mode settings denied unless a separate advertising-consent system is introduced:

• ad_storage = denied
• ad_user_data = denied
• ad_personalization = denied

Accepting analytics cookies does not by itself constitute consent to advertising storage, advertising personalisation or advertising-user-data processing.

7. Local consent preference

The Website uses a local preference called:

dublindigit_cookie_consent_v1

Its purpose is to remember your analytics-cookie choice so that the Website can apply your preference on later visits.

This preference is used for consent management rather than advertising.

You can reopen Cookie settings on the Website to change your choice.

8. Who may receive personal data?

Personal data may be disclosed to service providers where this is reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy.

Depending on the activity, recipients or processors may include:

• Website hosting and infrastructure providers;
• email and communications providers;
• IT, security and technical-support providers;
• analytics providers such as Google;
• professional advisers such as accountants or legal advisers where required;
• payment or financial-service providers where relevant to a transaction; and
• public authorities where disclosure is legally required.

We do not disclose personal data to third parties simply because they request it.

Where a service provider processes personal data on our behalf, we seek to use appropriate contractual and data-protection arrangements where required.

9. Google as an analytics provider

Google provides the Google Analytics technology used on the Website.

Google may process information generated through Analytics according to its applicable terms, privacy documentation and data-processing arrangements.

The nature of the data made available to Google depends in part on the applicable Consent Mode state and whether analytics storage has been granted or denied.

Google's own privacy and Analytics documentation should also be consulted for information about Google's processing.

10. International transfers

Some technology providers may process information in countries outside Ireland or the European Economic Area.

Where personal data is transferred to a country outside the EEA, appropriate safeguards must be used where required by Chapter V of the GDPR.

Depending on the provider and destination, these safeguards may include:

• an adequacy decision adopted by the European Commission;
• approved Standard Contractual Clauses;
• another legally recognised transfer mechanism; or
• another applicable safeguard permitted by data-protection law.

The exact transfer mechanism may depend on the service provider and its current processing arrangements.

11. How long we keep personal data

We do not intend to retain personal data for longer than reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to applicable legal obligations.

Retention is determined according to factors including:

• the nature of the information;
• the purpose for which it was collected;
• whether an enquiry remains active;
• the duration of a client relationship;
• contractual requirements;
• accounting and taxation requirements;
• applicable limitation periods;
• security requirements; and
• whether information is needed to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

For example:

• enquiry information may be kept while an enquiry is being assessed and for a reasonable period afterwards;
• client and contractual records may be retained for the duration of the relationship and afterwards where reasonably necessary for legal, accounting or business-record purposes;
• technical security logs may be retained for periods appropriate to security, diagnostic and abuse-prevention requirements; and
• Google Analytics information is subject to the relevant GA4 configuration and Google's applicable processing and retention arrangements.

Information that is no longer reasonably required should be deleted, anonymised or otherwise handled in accordance with applicable retention requirements.

12. Security

DublinDigit takes reasonable technical and organisational measures intended to protect personal data against:

• unauthorised access;
• unlawful processing;
• accidental loss;
• alteration;
• destruction; and
• inappropriate disclosure.

Measures may include access controls, server and application security, software maintenance, backups and appropriate administrative procedures.

No internet-based service can guarantee absolute security, and this Policy should not be interpreted as making such a guarantee.

13. Your GDPR rights

Subject to the conditions and limitations provided by applicable law, you may have the right to:

• access personal data held about you;
• rectify inaccurate or incomplete personal data;
• request erasure of personal data in appropriate circumstances;
• request restriction of processing;
• object to certain processing, including processing based on legitimate interests;
• receive certain information in a portable format where the right to data portability applies;
• withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and
• lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority.

Not every right applies in every circumstance.

To exercise a data-protection right, contact:

info@dublindigit.ie

We may need to request reasonable information to verify your identity before acting on a request.

14. Right to object

Where processing is based on legitimate interests, you have the right to object to that processing in circumstances provided by Article 21 GDPR.

If you object, we will assess the request in accordance with applicable data-protection law.

15. Withdrawing analytics consent

You can change your analytics-cookie choice through the permanent Cookie settings control on the Website.

If analytics cookies were previously accepted and you later withdraw consent, the Website is intended to:

• change analytics_storage to denied;
• prevent further analytics-cookie storage;
• remove DublinDigit-accessible GA analytics cookies where technically appropriate;
• keep advertising-related consent denied; and
• save your updated preference.

Under Advanced Consent Mode, limited cookieless measurement may continue while analytics storage is denied, as described above.

16. Complaints to the Irish Data Protection Commission

If you have concerns about how your personal data is handled, we encourage you to contact DublinDigit first so that we can consider the issue.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Commission (DPC), Ireland's supervisory authority for data protection.

Information about making a complaint is available at:

https://www.dataprotection.ie

You may also have the right to contact another competent EU supervisory authority where applicable.

17. Automated decision-making

DublinDigit does not use personal data collected through the Website to make solely automated decisions that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects concerning individuals.

If this changes, this Privacy Policy will be updated where required.

18. Children

The Website and DublinDigit's commercial services are primarily directed towards businesses and adults.

DublinDigit does not knowingly seek to collect children's personal data through ordinary business enquiry forms.

If you believe that a child has submitted personal information inappropriately, contact info@dublindigit.ie so that the matter can be reviewed.

19. Third-party websites

The Website may contain links to third-party websites or services.

DublinDigit is not the controller of personal data independently collected by those third parties merely because the Website links to them.

You should review the relevant third party's privacy information before submitting personal data to it.

20. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect:

• changes to the Website;
• changes to our services or processing activities;
• changes to service providers;
• changes in technology;
• changes in applicable law or regulatory guidance; or
• improvements to the way we explain our processing.

The latest version will be published on this page with its most recent update date.

Where a change materially affects how personal data is processed, additional notice or consent will be provided where required by law.
