• Booking details: your name, email, phone number, date, time, party size and any special requests.
• Dietary and allergen information: only if you choose to tell us, so the kitchen can prepare your food safely.
• Order and payment details: what you ordered, amounts and transaction references. Card details are handled by our payment provider; we never see your full card number.
• Visit and marketing data: your visit history and preferences, and how you interact with our emails and texts.
• Website data: device, browser, IP address and pages viewed, collected through cookies (see the Cookie Policy below).
• CCTV: images recorded in and around the venue for safety and security.

We collect most of this directly from you, and some from our booking and payment providers.

We never sell your personal data.

Marketing is opt-in only. Making a booking does not sign you up. If you do opt in, we may send you news, offers and event invitations by email or text, and you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every message or by emailing us.

To make our offers more relevant, we build a simple guest profile from your visits and preferences. You can object to this at any time. We do not make any decisions that have a legal or similarly significant effect on you by automated means.

We share your data only with the service providers we need to run The Old Bank, under contracts that protect it.

Allergen and dietary information can be health data. We record it only with your explicit consent, use it only to prepare your food safely, and remove it when you ask us to. You can always tell your server in person instead.

Some of our providers are based outside the European Economic Area, mainly in the United States. Where data is transferred, it is protected by the EU–US Data Privacy Framework or the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.

You have the right to access your data, correct it, have it deleted, restrict or object to how we use it, receive a copy in a portable format, and withdraw consent at any time. To use any of these rights, email privacy@eclective.ie. We will reply within one month.

You also have the right to complain to the Data Protection Commission (dataprotection.ie).

We use technical and organisational measures to protect your data, including access controls and working only with providers who meet the same standards.

Our services and marketing are aimed at adults. We do not knowingly collect personal data from, or send marketing to, children under 16.

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be on this page, with the date it was last updated.

Only strictly necessary cookies run automatically, so the website works. Analytics and marketing cookies run only if you accept them in the cookie banner. We ask you to confirm your choice at least every six months, and you can change it at any time from the Cookie Settings link in the footer.
