This Cookies Policy explains how ambyrne.com, Andy Byrne’s personal and professional website, uses cookies and similar browser storage. Essential cookies support the website and remember your choices. Optional cookies remain off until you consent.
Your choice
Use the consent banner to Accept All, Reject Optional or choose Preferences. Rejecting optional cookies does not prevent you from reading the website. Use the floating Cookie Preferences button at any time to change or withdraw consent. The current preference lasts 30 days.
Essential cookies
The wpconsent_preferences cookie remembers your choice for 30 days. WordPress may use login, session and preference cookies when an administrator signs in. Security tools may use cookies or technical information to prevent abuse. These functions support the operation and protection of the site.
Optional statistics
Google Analytics is configured through MonsterInsights. Its analytics scripts are blocked until Statistics cookies are accepted. Analytics can use identifiers such as _ga and _ga_* to measure visits and sessions; these are not essential to browse the site. Their expiry depends on the Analytics configuration and can refresh on a subsequent visit. The precise Analytics retention configuration will be confirmed before launch.
Third-party content and links
Google reCAPTCHA is configured for the contact form and may use cookies or device and interaction information when allowed to load. Its domain settings currently need correction. Supported external embeds, such as YouTube or maps, are blocked before consent. They may not appear on every page. Social profile buttons are links to external websites; those sites apply their own cookie policies after you leave this site.
Cookies configured in the consent tool
The list below is generated from WPConsent’s current configuration. It supplements the descriptions above and may not include every provider cookie or cookies restricted to administrator sessions.

Browser controls
You can also remove cookies or block them using your browser settings. Removing existing analytics cookies may be necessary if you want to erase identifiers already stored before withdrawing consent. Blocking essential login cookies can prevent administrator sign-in.
