1. What this policy covers

This policy explains cookies and similar browser-storage technologies used on TaxComply Ireland. Some storage is necessary to remember choices or preserve work in a form. Optional analytics are not loaded unless you actively consent.

3. Optional analytics

If you choose “Allow analytics”, Google Analytics may record page views and high-level interaction events so we can understand which pages and journeys are useful. We do not intentionally send names, email addresses, PPSNs, case-form contents or tax figures as analytics event parameters. If you reject analytics, our consent component does not load Google Analytics.

4. Your choice

The first time the site needs a privacy choice, you can reject optional analytics, allow analytics or open the management controls. Rejecting optional analytics is presented alongside accepting it. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time using Cookie preferences in the footer.

When analytics consent is withdrawn, the site disables analytics and attempts to remove Google Analytics cookies set for this site. You can also clear cookies and site storage using your browser controls.

5. Necessary and functional storage

Consent is not requested for storage that is strictly necessary to provide a feature you have requested, such as remembering your cookie choice. Session drafts are used to prevent longer forms from being immediately lost on refresh; they are stored in your browser, not as a TaxComply customer account.

6. Advertising and marketing

The launch build does not use advertising cookies, behavioural advertising or Google AdSense. We will not introduce advertising or materially different tracking without reviewing the consent mechanism and updating this policy first.

7. Browser controls

You can block or delete cookies and local/session storage in your browser. Doing so may remove saved form drafts or cause the site to ask for your privacy choice again.
