This Cookie Policy explains how Umbrelo uses cookies on our website. We use cookies to improve your browsing experience, remember your preferences, and understand how you interact with our content. We are committed to transparency about our data practices and your privacy.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit our website. They allow us to recognize your device and remember information about your previous visits, such as your preferences and settings. Cookies play an essential role in making websites function properly and enhancing user experience across the internet.

We use cookies to personalise your experience when exploring our weekend recreation activities, including walking tours, painting classes, photography club outings, and garden party socials. These files help us understand which features and activities interest our community of adults aged 40-60 most, allowing us to continually improve our offerings and ensure you receive relevant information about events happening throughout the Irish countryside.

Types of Cookies We Use

We use several types of cookies to enhance our website functionality and user experience. Essential cookies are necessary for our site to operate properly, enabling basic functions like page navigation and secure access to protected areas. These cookies do not track your personal information and are strictly required for our services to work.

Performance cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting anonymous data about page visits, time spent on pages, and user journeys. This information allows us to identify and fix technical issues and improve overall site performance. We also use preference cookies to remember your choices, such as language settings and display preferences, so you don’t need to reconfigure them on each visit.

How We Use Cookie Information

We use cookie data to analyse website usage patterns and improve the quality of our digital presence. By tracking which sections receive the most engagement, we gain insights into which activities—whether countryside walking tours or watercolour painting classes—resonate most with our community. This information helps us develop better content and create more relevant event recommendations tailored to your interests.

Cookies also enable us to maintain session information, such as keeping you logged in if you create an account with us. We use this data to personalise your browsing experience and provide targeted information about upcoming photography club outings, garden party socials, and other recreation activities. We never sell or share your cookie data with third parties for marketing purposes, and we respect your privacy throughout your visit to our site.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

Instructions for managing cookies vary depending on your browser—you can typically find these settings in your browser’s privacy or security section. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our website and limit your ability to access certain features or receive personalized recommendations.

If you wish to learn more about cookies and how to manage them, you can visit dedicated resources that provide comprehensive information about cookie management across different browsers and devices. We encourage you to review your cookie settings periodically and adjust them according to your comfort level. We may update our cookie practices as technology evolves, and we will always provide notice of significant changes to how we use cookies on our site.
