Cookie Policy

Last updated: 19 August 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how certificate-assist.ie, operated by Apliko Consulting OÜ (Sepapaja tn 6, 15551 Tallinn, Estonia), uses cookies and similar technologies. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1. What cookies are

A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies allow a site to remember your actions and preferences, to function correctly and, where you consent, to measure how the site is used.

2. Cookies we use

Strictly necessary cookies

These are required for the Website to work and cannot be switched off. They do not require your consent. They include:

  • Application form cookies: set when you begin an application, to keep your progress between the steps of the form and to prevent duplicate or fraudulent submissions.
  • Security cookies: used to protect the Website against abuse and automated attacks.
  • Consent cookie: records the cookie choices you make, so we do not ask you again on every page.
  • Payment cookies: set by our payment provider during checkout to process your payment securely and detect fraud.
  • Session cookies for logged-in administrators: these affect our own staff only, not visitors.

Analytics cookies

These help us understand how visitors use the Website, which pages are viewed and where people leave the process, so we can improve it. They are set only if you accept them in the cookie banner, and you can withdraw that consent at any time.

Marketing cookies

Where used, these measure the effectiveness of our advertising and are set only with your consent.

What we currently set. At the date shown above, this Website sets no analytics or marketing cookies. Only strictly necessary cookies are used, and only where the relevant function is active, for example when you start an application form or make a payment. This page is updated whenever that changes.

3. Third-party connections

Some elements of the Website are loaded from third parties. Even where these do not set cookies, your IP address is transmitted to the provider so the content can be delivered:

  • Google Fonts (Google Ireland Limited): typefaces are loaded from fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com. This transmits your IP address to Google. No cookie is set for this purpose.
  • Our payment provider: during checkout only, to process the payment and carry out fraud checks.

We do not embed social media widgets, advertising pixels or third-party video players.

4. Managing your choices

You can accept or refuse non-essential cookies through the banner shown on your first visit, and change your decision at any time using the cookie settings link on the Website. Refusing them does not prevent you from using the service.

You can also delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop the application form or payment from working correctly.

5. Changes to this policy

We update this policy whenever the cookies used on the Website change. The version published here, with its “last updated” date, is the one in force.
