At WineIndustry.com Classifieds, we know that you care how your information is used, and we appreciate your trust that we will use it carefully and sensibly. This notice describes our privacy policy. By visiting us, you are accepting the privacy policy described below.

  1. What Personal Information Do We Collect?

* Information You Provide. We receive and store information you enter. For example, when you buy an ad, or when you supply information such as your address, phone number or credit card. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of some of our features. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, improving our website, and communicating with you.

* Cookies. Like many websites, we use “cookies”. Cookies are small files that we transfer to your hard drive that allow us to recognize you and to provide you with a customized experience. If you do not want us to use cookies, you can easily disable them by going to the toolbar of your web browser, and clicking on the “help” button. Follow the instructions that will prevent the browser from accepting cookies, or set the browser to inform you when you receive a new cookie. In addition, you may visit this and other websites anonymously through the use of utilities provided by other private companies.

* Other Information: Every computer has an IP (Internet Protocol) address. IP addresses of computers used to visit this site are noted. In addition, we automatically collect other information such as email addresses, browser types, operating systems, and the URL addresses of sites clicked to and from this site.

  1. How Do We Protect the Security of Your Information?

* We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.

* We use encryption to protect your information contained in our customer list.

* We use a firewall to protect against unlawful intrusion.

* We limit access to your information on a “need to know” basis.

* We reveal only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.

* It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.

* No system can guarantee absolute security, just as the finest lock can not guarantee physical security. However, we take every reasonable precaution to assure that your data is secure.

  1. Your Choice: Opt-in or Opt-out.

It is your choice whether to receive emails from us. At the bottom of every subscription email we send to you there is an “unsubscribe” link. Feel free to use it if you feel we are being too invasive.
