What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site work, remember choices, or (on some sites) measure usage and advertising. Compass of Care only uses essential cookies.
How we use cookies
We use cookies that are necessary to operate the website securely and to provide features you request. We do not use advertising cookies, social media tracking cookies, or third-party marketing pixels on this site.
Cookies we use
| Cookie | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
coc_cookie_consent | Stores that you have acknowledged this site’s cookie notice. | Essential | 1 year |
coc_site_access | Used only when Coming Soon / preview access is enabled, so you stay unlocked after entering the site password. | Essential | 30 days |
Our hosting provider may also set strictly necessary technical cookies or process similar technical data to deliver pages securely.
The contact form uses Cloudflare Turnstile as a security check to reduce spam. Cloudflare may set its own essential cookies when that widget loads. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy.
Do we need your consent?
Essential cookies do not require consent under EU / Irish ePrivacy rules because they are needed to provide the service you request. We still show a short cookie notice so you know what we use. When you choose Got it, we store an essential preference cookie so we do not show the notice again for a year.
Managing cookies
You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings. If you block all cookies, parts of the site may not work — for example, preview access may ask for the password again.
For more about cookies and how to control them, see guidance from the Data Protection Commission.
Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy if our use of cookies changes. The “Last updated” date will change when we do.
