What we keep, and why

The short version

• No tracking cookies, no ad networks, no selling or swapping your details.
• Favourites and My Table (your allergens and diet) are saved on your device, not with us.
• Your location is only used if you tap "How far am I?", and it never leaves your phone.
• What you send us (an enquiry) is used for that and nothing else.

Who we are

What stays on your device

Some features remember things in your browser’s storage so they work next time: drinks you’ve saved and My Table. We can’t see any of it. The full list, and how long each one lasts, is on the Cookies page.

What you send us

The contact form

WhatYour name, email, phone if you give it, and your message, plus the page you sent it from and the website you came to us from.WhyTo reply to you.Kept12 months in our booking service, then deleted. The copy in the bar’s own records is kept for as long as the bar needs it for bookings.

Table and Lauren’s requests

WhatYour name, phone, email, the date, time and how many, whether you’d like food at Lauren’s, and anything you tell us, plus the page you sent it from and the website you came to us from.WhyTo confirm and hold your table, or Lauren’s.Kept12 months in our booking service, then deleted. The copy in the bar’s own records is kept for as long as the bar needs it for bookings.

Our lawful basis is taking steps you’ve asked for before a booking (a contract), or our legitimate interest in replying to you. Where we’d rely on consent we’ll ask clearly and you can change your mind any time.

Who else is involved

A few companies run parts of the site for us, under data processing agreements, and only see what they need to:

• WordPress, on our web host (InMotion Hosting), runs the site and holds the menus, events and page text the bar edits. It never sees what you send us.
• Cloudflare serves the site and runs our booking service, which takes in your bookings and enquiries and keeps them on servers inside the EU. It also filters out spam bots on forms (Turnstile).
• Google (Google Workspace) holds the bar’s own records: a copy of each table, Lauren’s or contact enquiry goes to the bar’s Google Sheets.
• Resend sends our replies and confirmations by email.
• Met Éireann gives us Limerick’s weather forecast. We ask for the city’s forecast; nothing about you is sent.

Maps and directions open Google Maps in a new page; we don’t embed it, so Google sees nothing of your visit until you choose to go there.
