1. Overview
Tenderwatch.ie is operated by Consistent Publishing Limited (CRO 742884), which is the data controller for personal information collected via this website. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights under the GDPR and Irish data protection law.
2. Data We Collect
2.1 Analytics
We use Plausible Analytics, a GDPR-compliant, privacy-first analytics tool. Plausible does not use cookies, does not collect personal data, and does not track you across sites. We see only aggregate statistics (page views, referrers, countries).
2.2 AI Tool Inputs
When you use our AI tools (Tender Matcher, Bid Readiness, Tender Brief, Jargon Decoder), your input is sent to Anthropic's Claude API to generate a response. We do not store your inputs or the AI responses. Please review Anthropic's Privacy Policy for information on how they handle API data.
2.3 Server Logs
Our hosting provider (Netlify) may collect standard server log data (IP addresses, request times) for security and operational purposes. See Netlify's Privacy Policy for details.
3. Cookies
TenderWatch does not use tracking or advertising cookies. Plausible Analytics is cookieless. No consent banner is required.
