This statistical and analytical information and data can be collected through the standard operation of our Internet servers and logs as well as “cookies”. Typically, cookies involve the assigning of a unique number to the visitor. Visitors should be aware that Irish Theatre Institute are unable to control the use of cookies or the resulting information by other third parties such as advertisers or parties hosting data for Irish Theatre Institute.
