Privacy

What we collect.

If you subscribe to updates

We collect the email address you type into the subscribe form. We use it to send you occasional updates - new venues, late availability, things worth knowing. We don’t share it with anyone, sell it, or use it for anything else. To unsubscribe, email admin@dipndine.gg.

If you send an enquiry

We collect what you put in the enquiry form: name, email, optionally phone, date and party size, and your message. That info is sent by email to:

Venues reply directly to you - we don’t sit in the middle. We don’t store enquiry contents on the site after sending; the only record is in our and the venue’s inboxes.

Abuse protection

When you submit an enquiry, we briefly record your IP address (and the time) so we can rate-limit submissions and stop the form being abused. These records are kept for at most one hour and are deleted automatically.

Analytics

We use Plausible, a privacy-focused analytics tool. It tells us aggregate things like how many people visited and which venues are popular. It doesn’t set cookies, doesn’t collect personal data, and doesn’t track you across other sites.

Who we share data with

That’s it. No advertisers, no data brokers.

Cookies

One cookie. No banner.

We set a single cookie called DipNDineEmailCookie, and only after you subscribe to updates. It exists purely so we know not to show you the subscribe form again. It doesn’t track you, doesn’t leave our site, and expires after a day.

Because we don’t use any tracking or advertising cookies, we don’t show a cookie banner. You can clear the cookie any time from your browser settings, or by visiting /?clearcookie=1.

Your rights

Your data, your call.

Under the Data Protection (Bailiwick of Guernsey) Law 2017 you can ask us to:

Email admin@dipndine.gg and we’ll sort it within a reasonable time.

If you’re not happy with how we’ve handled your data, you can complain to the Office of the Data Protection Authority in Guernsey.

Terms of use

House rules.

This is an unofficial guide

We’re not affiliated with any of the venues listed here. We don’t take bookings, we don’t operate the pools, and we don’t cook the food. We’re just a free guide.

We try to be accurate but we’re not perfect

Opening times, prices, availability and conditions change. Before you make a trip, check directly with the venue. If you spot something out of date, let us know and we’ll fix it.

Use the enquiry form in good faith

It’s there for genuine enquiries to the venues. Don’t send spam, impersonate someone else, send commercial pitches, or use it to harass venues. If you do, we’ll block your address.

Swimming and dining is at your own risk

Sea swimming in particular carries real risks - check conditions, tides, and your own ability before getting in. Pools have rules set by the venue; follow them. We can’t accept responsibility for anything that happens to you at a venue, on the way to one, or as a result of acting on information you found on this site. You’re responsible for your own safety.

Links to other sites

We link to venue websites, booking systems, and other things. We’re not responsible for what’s on them, what they do with your data, or whether the links keep working.

Content & copyright

The words and design on this site are © Matt Thornton, 2023–2026. Venue photos belong to the venues or the photographer that took them and are used here in good faith to illustrate the listings - if anything shouldn’t be here, email us and we’ll remove it.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Bailiwick of Guernsey.

Stay in the loop

Updates & offers.

The occasional email when a new venue lands, when a hotel drops late-availability, or when something worth knowing comes up. Never shared with anyone.
