We use cookies for website statistics (Jetpack Stats), for measuring our advertising (Google and Reddit) and for embedded YouTube videos. Non-essential cookies are only set after you accept them in our cookie banner, and you can change your choice at any time. Full details of each cookie are in our Cookie Policy.

- Suppliers and production partners, such as product suppliers, embroidery and print partners and couriers. They receive only what they need to make and deliver your order, for example your artwork and delivery address.
- Advertising and analytics partners (Google, Reddit), only where you have consented to their cookies.
- Our accountants, auditors and professional advisers, and public authorities such as the Revenue Commissioners where the law requires it.
5. Transfers outside the EEA
Some of our providers (for example Google, Stripe, Automattic and Reddit) may process data outside the European Economic Area, including in the United States. Where this happens, the transfer is protected by the EU–US Data Privacy Framework or by the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
6. How long we keep your data
