Who we are

Fork It Leiden ("Fork It", "we", "us") cooks Date Dinners, Private Dinners, Paella Workshops and Borrel Catering in and around Leiden, the Netherlands. We're in the process of registering with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KVK) — we'll add our KVK number here once that's complete.

What we collect, and why

Booking requests. When you use the booking form on our site, it opens WhatsApp or your email app with your details (name, event type, date, guest count, and anything else you add) ready to send to us directly — the website itself doesn't store this. Once it reaches us over WhatsApp or email, we use it only to plan and follow up on your event.

Website analytics. With your consent, we use Google Analytics (GA4) and Microsoft Clarity to understand how visitors use the site — which pages are popular, where people drop off — so we can improve it. These tools never receive your name, email address, phone number, or anything you type into a form: Clarity is set to its strictest masking mode, which blocks form input from ever being recorded.

Cookies

We only set cookies that aren't strictly necessary — like the analytics ones below — after you accept them in the cookie banner. You can change your choice anytime via "Cookie settings" in the footer.

Cookie	Set by	Purpose	Retention
cc_cookie	This site	Remembers your cookie preference	6 months
_ga, _ga_*	Google Analytics	Distinguishes visitors for analytics	Up to 14 months
_clck, _clsk	Microsoft Clarity	Distinguishes visitors for session analytics	Up to 1 year

How long we keep things

• Analytics data (GA4): automatically deleted after 14 months.
• Session analytics (Clarity): kept per Microsoft's standard retention, typically up to a year.
• Booking requests sent via WhatsApp or email: kept as long as we need them to plan your event and handle any follow-up, then deleted. As our booking system grows we plan to formalise this (planned: 18 months, then anonymised) — we'll update this page when that changes.

Your rights

You can ask us what data we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or withdraw consent for analytics at any time — email Bookings@forkit.nl. If you're not happy with how we've handled your data, you can also complain to the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens).

Changes to this page

If how we handle data changes — for example when we add new tools — we'll update this page and the date at the top.
