Last updated: 8 October 2026
Introduction
This website uses cookies and similar technologies. This policy explains what they are, which ones we use, what they do, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your computer, tablet or phone when you visit it. It lets the site remember things between pages and between visits, such as what is in your basket or whether you have already dismissed the cookie banner.
What Are Scripts?
A script is a piece of code that makes the website work properly and interactively. Scripts run in your browser and can also place cookies.
What Is a Web Beacon?
A web beacon, sometimes called a pixel tag, is a very small invisible image or piece of text used to track traffic on a website. Various data about you may be stored using web beacons.
Types of Cookie We Use
5.1 Necessary and Functional Cookies
These are needed for the website to work. They remember your basket, keep you logged in if you have an account, secure our forms against spam, and store your cookie choices. The site cannot work properly without them, so they are always on.
5.2 Statistics Cookies
These help us understand how the website is used — which pages people visit, how they got here, and where things go wrong. They are only set if you accept them.
5.3 Marketing and Tracking Cookies
These are used to measure the performance of our advertising and, in some cases, to show you our ads on other websites. They are only set if you accept them.

Your Consent
When you first visit our website we show you a banner explaining the cookies we would like to set. You can accept all of them, reject the optional ones, or choose by category. Necessary cookies are set regardless, because the site cannot function without them.
Changing or Withdrawing Your Consent
You can change your mind at any time using the round cookie button at the bottom left of every page, or this cookie settings link. If you withdraw consent, the optional cookies listed above are removed. You can also clear the cookies for kcsecurity.ie in your browser and reload the page.
Deleting Cookies in Your Browser
You can delete cookies manually and stop your browser accepting new ones. Every browser does this slightly differently, and the instructions are in your browser’s help or settings section. Bear in mind that blocking necessary cookies may stop parts of this website, including the shop, from working.
Your Rights
You have the right to access, correct or erase the personal data we hold, and to withdraw your consent. Full details, including how to contact the Data Protection Commission, are in our Privacy Policy.
