Privacy Policy
The short version: We collect only what we need (your email, when you request a report or snapshot), we never sell your data, we don't use advertising trackers, and you can ask us to delete your data at any time.
1. Who We Are
IrishPropertyInsights is an independent data analysis service built on official Irish government records — the Property Price Register (PPR) and the Residential Tenancies Board (RTB). We provide property investment intelligence reports for the Irish market.
For the purposes of data protection, the data controller is IrishPropertyInsights, operated as a sole trader based in Ireland.
2. What Data We Collect
We collect minimal personal data. Specifically:
- Email address — when you request a free snapshot, purchase a full report, or sign up to be notified when a county launches. This is collected via our email form and processed through Formspree.
- County selection — the Irish county you select when requesting a report or snapshot. This is not personally identifying on its own.
- Usage data — basic server logs (IP address, browser type, pages visited) retained for up to 30 days for security and debugging. We do not use this for profiling.
We do not collect: payment card details (handled entirely by Gumroad), names, addresses, phone numbers, or any sensitive personal data.
3. How We Use Your Data
- To send you the free snapshot or full report you requested
- To notify you when a requested county report becomes available
- To send occasional product updates if you opted in (you can unsubscribe at any time)
- To understand how the site is used and improve it
We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or automated decision-making.
4. Legal Basis (GDPR)
We process your personal data under the following legal bases:
- Contract performance — to deliver the snapshot or report you requested
- Legitimate interests — to improve the service and prevent abuse
- Consent — for any optional marketing emails (you can withdraw consent at any time)
