Privacy Policy

1. Who this notice covers

Kennys Bar is responsible for the personal information described in this notice, covering website enquiries, newsletter subscriptions and bookings for events we organise. For privacy questions or requests, contact us at: Kennys Bar, Main Street, Lahinch, Co. Clare, Ireland. Email kennyspublahinch@gmail.com or call +353 65 708 1433.

2. Information you provide

Our contact form asks for your name, email address and message. We also receive the information you choose to send by email, phone or through an artist enquiry. Please only include information relevant to your request and avoid sending payment-card details or sensitive personal information through the general contact form.

Providing information is voluntary, but we need sufficient contact details and information to respond to an enquiry. Website hosting and security services may also process technical information such as IP addresses, browser details and request logs to deliver and protect the site.

3. Why we use it

We use enquiry information to respond to questions, discuss visits, dining or performances, and keep relevant correspondence. For general enquiries, our legal basis is our legitimate interest in communicating with customers and performers. Where your request concerns entering into or carrying out an agreement with us, we use the information necessary to take those steps or fulfil that agreement.

We may retain or disclose records where required by law, relying on the relevant legal obligation. For newsletter subscriptions, we use MailerLite to manage your email address, any name you provide and your subscription preferences, and to send news and event updates with your consent. You can withdraw consent using the unsubscribe link in any newsletter or by contacting us. Sending an enquiry or buying a ticket does not by itself subscribe you to our newsletter.

4. Service providers and external links

This website is built and hosted using Webflow. Enquiries may be processed through Webflow’s form service and our email service. MailerLite processes newsletter subscriber information on our behalf. We use Ticket Tailor to manage event ticket bookings, including buyer and attendee details, tickets, order records and information supplied at checkout. We use booking information to fulfil the booking, manage admission and communicate essential event updates, on the basis of our contract with you. Payment information is handled by the payment provider identified at checkout. Access is limited to staff and service providers who need it for these purposes. Information may also be shared with professional advisers or authorities where necessary for a legal obligation or claim.

For events we organise, Kennys Bar remains responsible for the use of attendee information; Ticket Tailor provides the booking platform. A different organiser may be identified on an event listing. Links to Google Maps, Instagram, Facebook and other external websites lead to services with their own privacy notices. Read Webflow’s privacy information for details about its services.

Some service providers process data outside the European Economic Area. Such processing requires an applicable transfer mechanism, such as an adequacy decision or appropriate contractual safeguards. Contact us for details of the arrangements relevant to your information.

5. Cookies and embedded services

Cookies and similar technologies can support essential site functions or optional services such as analytics and embedded media. Where consent is legally required, optional technologies require your permission before they are used. Browser settings can be used to block or remove cookies, although blocking essential cookies may affect functionality.

Following an external link may allow that provider to use cookies under its own policy. A privacy notice does not itself give consent to tracking.

6. How long information is kept

Enquiry records are retained as needed to resolve the matter and related follow-up. Newsletter subscription details are retained while you subscribe; after unsubscribing, a limited suppression record may be kept to respect your choice and evidence of consent may be retained where needed to address a complaint. Event booking records are kept as needed to administer the event, deal with refunds or disputes and meet applicable legal and accounting obligations. Retention depends on the purpose, legal requirements and any outstanding claim. Information should be deleted or anonymised when no longer needed.

7. Your choices and rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may request access to your personal information, correction, deletion, restriction of use or a portable copy. You may object to processing based on legitimate interests. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it without affecting earlier lawful processing. These rights are subject to the conditions and exceptions in data protection law.

To make a request, use the contact details above. We may need information to verify your identity. You can also complain to Ireland’s Data Protection Commission.

8. Updates

We may revise this notice to reflect changes to the website or how information is handled. The revision date appears above. Please contact us if you have a question about this notice.
