Privacy Policy
How we collect, use, and protect your personal data.
Last updated: 18 October 2026
Who We Are
Ash Ecology & Environmental Ltd is an ecological and environmental consulting firm based in Limerick, Ireland. Our website address is https://ashecology.ie. We also operate https://floodriskreport.ie as a trading name.
Information We Collect
When you submit a quote request through our contact form, we collect your name, phone number, email address, site address, and project description. This information is necessary to prepare and deliver a quotation for our services.
Beyond standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages visited), we only collect information about casual visitors through the analytics and advertising cookies described below, and only if you accept them.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information you provide solely to respond to your enquiry, prepare quotations, deliver our professional services, and communicate with you about your project. We do not use your data for marketing purposes unless you have given explicit consent.
Cookies, Google Analytics & Advertising
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site and Google Ads conversion tracking to measure the effectiveness of our advertising. These services use cookies, which are only set if you click “Accept” in our cookie banner. If you reject them, or make no choice, Google Analytics and Google Ads do not set cookies on your device; Google may still receive limited, cookieless signals (such as that a page was viewed) to help us measure the site in aggregate.
You can change your choice at any time using the “Cookie settings” link in the footer of every page. Your choice is stored in your browser so we don’t ask on every visit. Our website fonts are hosted on our own server, so no data is sent to Google Fonts.
Data Sharing
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to third parties. Form submissions are processed through Netlify, our website hosting provider, which acts as a data processor on our behalf.
Data Retention
We retain your contact information for the duration of our professional engagement and for a reasonable period afterwards in case of follow-up enquiries. You may request deletion of your data at any time.
Your Rights
Under GDPR, you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing, and port your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at info@ashecology.ie.
