Protecting
your privacy is important to us. We hope the following
statement will help you understand how Wimbledon Wine Company
collects, uses and safeguards the personal information you
provide to us on our Website.
Security
When you send confidential personal account data such as a credit card
number to us on Wimbledon Wine Company Websites, we
require that a "secure session" first be
established using Secure Socket Layer (SSL).
Information Collection
When
you browse wimbledonwine.com and have not
registered for any online service from Wimbledon Wine Company,
you browse anonymously. Personal information such as your name, address, phone number or
E-mail address is not collected as you
browse. Wimbledon Wine Company does,
however, use "cookies" to collect
information about how our site is used.
Information, such as the server your computer is
logged onto, your browser type (for example,
Netscape or Internet Explorer), and whether you
responded to an Wimbledon Wine Company banner ad
or E-mail is collected and tracked in aggregate.
This information is used for the purpose of
measuring response rates to banner ads and
E-mail offers.
When you place an order in the Wine Shop or join
one of our Wine Clubs, our partner, Inertia Beverage Group, inertiabev.com,
collects information such as your name, mailing address,
phone number, e-mail address, comments, and
order information. They use session cookies that only last the duration of the browsing
session to maintain a "session" for the user, which allows them to have a shopping cart, and to login to manage their account.
They also use long-term cookies that are not associated with any personal data, for purposes of counting unique visitors over time.
When you place an order for POS
items, Wimbledon Wine Company collects your name, mailing address,
phone number, e-mail address, comments, and
order information. We set a cookie on your computer so
the next time you place an order, the form is
automatically filled out for your convenience.
If you do not allow cookies to be set the form
will not be filled out the next time you place
an order.
Registration for Online Products and Services
In order to
provide you with a particular product or service
online, we may request that you voluntarily
supply us with personal information, including
your E-mail address or account number for
purposes such as correspondence, site
registration, checking your bill, making a
purchase, or participating in online surveys and
enabling us to provide an online product or
service to you in an efficient manner.
If
you are known to us as a registered user of a Wimbledon Wine Company
online service, we may combine information about
your use of wimbledonwine.com and the online
product or service you utilize with certain
other online and offline information we have
about you as a Wimbledon Wine Company customer
and information you have provided to us as well
as information available from external sources,
such as census bureau data, in order to
customize your online experience and present you
with relevant online and offline offers and
updates. We also use a "cookie" to
enable our server to recognize you as a
registered Wimbledon Wine Company online service
user when you re-enter our site. If you would
like to learn more about cookies, please read About
Cookies for more information.
Information Use
We
may use information you have given us to, for
example, provide a service, ensure proper
billing, measure consumer interest in our
various services and inform you about products
and services. If you have provided your E-mail
address to us or to a company we’ve partnered
with to make their products and services
available to you, we may send you E-mail offers.
We may also send you E-mail offers if you have
provided your E-mail address to a third party
and have actively chosen or requested, on an
opt-in basis, to receive E-mail offers from
other parties. These offers may be based on
information you provided in your initial
transaction with us, in surveys, from
information that may indicate purchasing
preferences and lifestyle, as well as
information available from external sources,
such as census bureau data. These E-mail offers
come directly from Wimbledon Wine Company. You
can opt out from receiving E-mail offers from Wimbledon Wine Company
as described below in the section, Declining
E-mail offers below.
When
we send E-mails to you, we may be able to
identify information about your E-mail address,
such as whether you can read graphic-rich html
E-mails. If your E-mail address is html-enabled,
we may choose to send you graphic-rich html
E-mails.
We may send
you offers on behalf of our business partners.
Keep in mind that if you take advantage of an
offer from a Wimbledon Wine Company business
partner and become their customer, they may
independently wish to send offers to you. In
this case, you will need to inform them
separately if you wish to decline receiving
future offers from them.
Our
goal is to deliver offers to people who we
believe will find them of value. Offers are
developed and managed under strict conditions
designed to safeguard the security and privacy
of customer personal information.
If you have placed a POS order
we may provide your order information to the
brand so they can ship items directly to you.
Declining E-mail Offers
Wimbledon Wine Company
provides customers with an easy means to decline
receiving E-mail offers. Although some customers
tell us they appreciate receiving notice of
these carefully designed opportunities, we
recognize the importance of providing you with
choices. At any time, you may request to
discontinue receiving these offers from us by
simply replying to the E-mail and informing us
of your preferences. All E-mail offers that you
receive from Wimbledon Wine Company will inform
you of how to decline receiving further E-mail
offers. You may submit a request
to decline receiving further E-Mail offers
online at any time.
