Cookie Policy
How we use cookies and how to manage them.
Last updated: September 2026
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website. They help the website remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, login status, or browsing behaviour.
Cookies are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide a better user experience.
Your Choice
Analytics and marketing cookies are only set if you click Yes, that's fine on the cookie banner. If you decline, Google Analytics runs in cookieless mode (no cookie is stored and no identifier is kept on your device) and Microsoft Clarity and the Meta pixel are not loaded at all. Essential cookies work without consent. You can change your mind at any time: reset your cookie choice and the banner will show again.
How We Use Cookies
O'Hanlon Performance uses cookies for the following purposes:
- Essential cookies — To ensure the website functions properly (e.g., maintaining your session if you're logged in).
- Analytics cookies — To understand how visitors use our website and improve our services (e.g., Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity).
- Marketing cookies — To measure whether our Facebook and Instagram posts and ads reach GAA players, and to show our content to people who have visited the site (Meta pixel).
- Third-party cookies — To enable third-party services such as Stripe (payment processing), and to run the O'Hanlon Performance training app.
Types of Cookies We Use
1. Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as filling out a contact form or logging into an account.
Examples:
- Session cookies to maintain your login state.
- Preference cookies to remember your choices (e.g., language settings).
Duration: Session-based (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent (stored for a set period).
2. Analytics Cookies
We use Google Analytics to collect anonymised data about how visitors interact with our website. This helps us understand which pages are most popular, how long users spend on the site, and where visitors come from.
Data collected:
- Pages visited
- Time spent on the site
- Device type (mobile, desktop, tablet)
- Geographic location (city/country level, not precise)
- Referral source (e.g., Google search, direct visit)
Provider: Google Analytics
Duration: Up to 26 months
Privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy
Cloudflare Web Analytics
We also use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count page views. It sets no cookies and stores no identifier on your device, so it runs whether or not you accept on the cookie banner. Cloudflare's privacy policy is available at cloudflare.com/privacypolicy.
Microsoft Clarity
We use Microsoft Clarity to see how visitors use our pages, through heatmaps and session recordings (clicks, scrolls and mouse movement). This shows us where pages are confusing so we can fix them. Clarity masks text you type into forms, and it is only loaded after you accept on the cookie banner.
Provider: Microsoft Corporation
Duration: Up to 1 year
Privacy policy: privacy.microsoft.com/privacystatement
3. Marketing Cookies
We use the Meta pixel to measure how people arrive from Facebook and Instagram, and to show O'Hanlon Performance content to people who have already visited this site. It is only loaded after you accept on the cookie banner. Meta may combine this with your Meta account activity under its own privacy policy.
Provider: Meta Platforms Ireland Limited
Duration: Up to 90 days
Privacy policy: facebook.com/privacy/policy
4. Third-Party Cookies
When you use certain features on our website (e.g., making a payment or accessing the training app), third-party services may set cookies. These cookies are controlled by the third-party provider and are subject to their own privacy policies.
Stripe (Payment Processing)
Stripe uses cookies to process payments securely and prevent fraud. These cookies are set when you visit a payment page or checkout.
Provider: Stripe, Inc.
Privacy policy: stripe.com/privacy
O'Hanlon Performance Training App
For Custom Programming and Teams clients, the training app stores login-session data on your device to keep you signed in and deliver your training programs.
Provider: O'Hanlon Performance (authentication by Supabase).
Privacy policy: everfit.io/privacy
How to Manage Cookies
You can control and manage cookies in several ways:
1. Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can:
- Block all cookies
- Block third-party cookies only
- Delete cookies after each session
- Allow cookies from specific websites
Here are links to cookie management guides for popular browsers:
2. Opt Out of Google Analytics
If you want to opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On.
3. Opt Out of Meta Ads
You can control how Meta uses data from sites like ours in your Facebook or Instagram ad settings. Declining on our cookie banner stops the pixel loading here at all.
4. Do Not Track (DNT)
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) setting. However, there is no universal standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals, so we do not currently honour DNT requests. Instead, please use the browser settings above to manage cookies.
Impact of Disabling Cookies
If you disable cookies, some features of our website may not work properly. For example:
- You may not be able to complete a purchase via Stripe.
- You may not be able to log in to the training app.
- We may not be able to remember your preferences.
Essential cookies cannot be disabled without affecting the functionality of the website.
