A studio in Cork

OBL Digital is Robert O'Brien and Nikolajs Lozko. The two people who scope your project are the two who design, build and maintain it, no account layer, no hand-off. We keep the number of projects we run at once deliberately small.

Our process

  1. 01

    Discover

    You receive: a written scope, a current-state review of what you have now, and a fixed price against that scope.

  2. 02

    Design

    You receive: information architecture, user flows and interface designs for sign-off, with accessibility decisions annotated on them.

  3. 03

    Build

    You receive: access to a staging environment from the first week, and a version-controlled repository that is yours.

  4. 04

    Test & handover

    You receive: results of keyboard and screen-reader testing, written documentation, staff training, and every credential transferred to you.

  5. 05

    Support

    You receive: an agreed support window, scheduled updates applied on staging first, and a named person to contact.

The regulatory context we design within

The standards and instruments our work sits inside. This describes how we design. This is not legal advice; take your own advice on what applies to you.

  • WCAG 2.2 Level AA and EN 301 549

    The conformance target for everything we build, and the harmonised European standard that references it.

  • EU Web Accessibility Directive

    Transposed in Ireland by S.I. No. 358/2020, covering public sector bodies' websites and mobile applications.

  • European Accessibility Act

    Transposed by S.I. No. 636/2023, applying from 28 June 2025 to a range of products and services.

  • GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018

    Data minimisation, stated retention, named processors and documented data location on every project that handles personal data.

Delivery and hosting

Everything we build is delivered behind Cloudflare for DNS, global CDN, WAF, DDoS protection and managed TLS, with static and application workloads on Cloudflare Pages and Workers where appropriate. Any WordPress installation we build runs on EU-based origin infrastructure.

Data residency

For any WordPress build we deliver, application data and backups are held on EU-based infrastructure. On every project we tell you, in writing, where your data sits, who processes it and how long it is kept, before you have to ask.
