Our website utilizes necessary functional cookies to ensure secure connection and page navigation, alongside analytical cookies to help us evaluate site traffic patterns.

7. DATA SECURITY AND RETENTION

We employ industry-standard technical and organizational security protocols to protect your personal data from unauthorized modification, access, disclosure, or accidental loss. We retain professional contact data and industrial sales inquiries only for as long as necessary to fulfill the original collection intent, manage commercial contracts, or satisfy statutory financial record-keeping laws in Ireland.
