This policy explains how SB Catering collects and uses your personal data when you visit sbcatering.ie, send us an enquiry or book us for an event. We only use your data to deal with your enquiry and deliver your event, and we never sell it.
Who we are
SB Catering Limited (company number 756555), Unit 1, Oxmantown Lane, Smithfield, Dublin 7, Ireland. We are the data controller for the personal data described here.
Contact: info@sbcatering.ie
What we collect
- Quote requests: your name, phone number, email, event date, event type, number of guests, dietary requirements and anything else you tell us.
- Messages: what you send us by email or Instagram.
- Bookings: your venue address, menu choices, and invoice and payment details. Card payments are handled by our payment provider; we don’t store card numbers on our website.
- Website use: information about how you use the site, such as pages visited, device and approximate location, collected through cookies (see below).
Dietary and allergy information
Dietary needs or allergies can reveal health information. We only use it to prepare safe food for your event and share it only with the staff working on your event. You can ask us to delete it once the event is over.
How we use your data and why
| Replying to enquiries and preparing quotes | Taking steps at your request before a contract |
| Planning and delivering your event | Performing our contract with you |
| Invoices, accounts and tax records | Legal obligation |
| Handling allergy and dietary information | Your explicit consent, given when you share it |
| Website statistics and measuring our ads | Consent (analytics and advertising cookies) |
| Keeping our website secure | Our legitimate interests |
Who we share it with
We use trusted service providers who handle data on our behalf:
- SiteGround, which hosts our website and stores form submissions
- Google, for Google Analytics and Google Ads measurement
- Our email provider, accountants, bank and payment providers
Some providers, such as Google, may process data outside the European Economic Area. Where that happens, the transfer is protected by approved safeguards such as EU Standard Contractual Clauses or the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. We only share data with the Gardaí or other authorities when the law requires it.
How long we keep it
- Enquiries that don’t become a booking: up to 2 years.
- Booking, invoice and payment records: 6 years, as required by Irish tax law.
- Allergy and dietary details: until your event is over, unless they form part of your booking record.

- Advertising cookies (Google Ads) that measure whether our ads lead to enquiries
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may stop parts of the site from working. You can also opt out of Google Analytics with Google’s opt-out tool.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to:
- access the personal data we hold about you
