Cookie Policy
In brief: this cookie policy explains which cookies termofol.ie uses and why. Essential cookies keep the basket and checkout working. We use analytics cookies and load embedded maps and videos only after you accept, and you can change your choice at any time with “Cookie settings” in the footer.

What this cookie policy covers
Cookies are small text files that a website saves on your device. They remember things such as the contents of your basket or the choice you made about cookies. In addition, similar technologies, such as local storage, work in the same way, and this cookie policy covers them too.
Your choice under this cookie policy
When you first visit the website, a banner asks for your choice. You can accept all cookies or reject the non-essential ones. Both buttons work in the same way, so neither choice stops you from browsing or buying.
- Essential cookies are always on, because the shop cannot work without them. They do not need your consent.
- Analytics cookies and embedded content (Google Maps and YouTube) load only if you accept.
You can change your mind at any time. Click “Cookie settings” in the footer, then choose again. Also, if you reject cookies after accepting them, we delete the analytics cookies from your device. We keep your choice for 6 months and then ask you again.
