This Cookie Policy provides detailed information about how and when we use cookies and similar technologies, to recognize you when you visit our websites at http://www.bish.ie, and any associated subdomains or websites (collectively “Websites” and “Services”). This notice explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them. 

What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites function, to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information. 

Cookies set by the operator of a website (in this case, http://www.bish.ie) are called “first party cookies”. Cookies set by parties other than http://www.bish.ie are called “third-party cookies”. Third-Party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the Website (for example advertising, interactive content, interaction with social media sites, and analytics). The parties that set these third party cookies can recognize your computer or mobile device both when you visit our Website, and also when you visit certain other websites.

Why do we use cookies?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website and Services to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users and to enhance the experience of our Service.
