Summary
This page was last updated in April 2026. Any material changes to this statement will be summarised on our website.
This privacy statement is intended for all Internet users, including users who are also customers, applicants and investors. Please read this privacy policy carefully as it sets out how we use your personal information.
What does "we" ("Kingspan", "us" or "our") stand for?
We are Kingspan Holdings (Ireland) Limited (“Kingspan Group”) and its affiliates (each a “ Kingspan Affiliate ”).
We operate the Kingspan corporate website at kingspan.com, which includes country-specific sections managed centrally by Kingspan Group. Kingspan's business divisions also operate websites on subdomains of kingspan.com.
When you use the kingspan.com website, including any country-specific section, Kingspan Group acts as the controller of your personal information collected or accessed through the website. If you use a divisional subdomain your personal data will be processed independently by the Kingspan Division or Affiliate responsible for that subdomain, acting as an independent data controller
The Kingspan Group and each Kingspan Affiliate are separate, independent data controllers. If they process your personal data, they will do so on a separate, independent basis and for their own purposes. We explain each purpose in this privacy statement. This means that each data controller is separately responsible for compliance with a data controller's obligations under applicable data protection law.

Necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests. For example:
in marketing and promoting our products and services and conducting business responsibly and prudently; or

Marketing
We would like to provide you with information about Kingspan's products and services and other Kingspan information that we think you may find interesting. We may send you such information by post, email and/or telephone if you consent to this.
With your express consent, we will use external organizations to send you Kingspan offers and marketing communications. To do this, they will either collect information directly from you, or we will otherwise provide them with your personal information. These outside organizations include contractors, small traders, distributors, retailers and other service providers outside of Kingspan. When we work with third parties, we make joint decisions about how your personal data is used and we are jointly responsible for compliance with the law.

Who do we share your information with?
Affiliated Kingspan companies share your personal information with the Kingspan Group as the Kingspan Group operates the global website.
We may disclose your personal information to third parties in your country and in countries other than your own, in accordance with applicable laws.
Where we have your express consent, we may share your personal information with outside organizations (e.g. contractors, retailers, distributors, retailers, media agencies and service providers outside of Kingspan) so that they can inform you about their promotions, services, events and other activities in relation to Kingspan products and services without having obtained consent from you. An example of this is a vendor that places cookies on your device to personalize information about our products and services to you.
Because we are a global company, the countries to which your personal information is sent or accessed may have different data protection standards than the country in which you are located. However, we have safeguards and appropriate safeguards in place to ensure that your information is adequately protected and that we comply with the law.

When organizations outside of Kingspan provide you with a service on our behalf or assist us in providing the service to you (e.g. sending you a document you have requested or assisting in responding to your query regarding the technical operation of the website), or provide us professional advice, we may share your personal information with those organizations that will only use the information to provide the relevant service. However, we retain responsibility for your personal information and any third party service provider we use must act in accordance with our instructions and protect the confidentiality and security of the personal information appropriately.
We may share your personal information with a buyer or prospective buyer of our business.
We may disclose your Personal Information to third parties, their agents and professional advisers who are bound by confidentiality obligations to conduct third party due diligence in connection with any proposed merger, acquisition, restructuring or transfer of any portion of our business, and to individuals who intend to participate in, promote or commit to or administer any such arrangement.
