Why do we collect your data?
We collect, use and store your personal data so that we can offer you the products and services you expect from us and to power our site analytics. We collect your personal data in order to process and deliver your orders, to personalise, report on and improve the products and services we provide and to send you our latest promotions or news via email.
How do we collect your personal data?
When you visit our website, buy wine or cheese from us, book a tasting event, create an account or sign up to our mailing list we collect the information you give us, such as your name, your delivery address and your billing address. This enables us to communicate with you about your order and to improve your customer experience, for example, by holding an account for you so that you do not need to input your details each time you place an order.
What data do we collect?
If you communicate with us by e-mail or by our contact form on our website, we will collect your name and e-mail address and any other content that you send to us in the body of the mail. We do not collect any other personal data by any other method.
When you visit or use some parts of our websites and/or services we might ask you to provide personal data to us. For example, we ask for your contact information when you fill in a form, sign up for updates, join us on social media, contact us with questions or request support. If you don’t want to provide us with personal data, you don’t have to, but it might mean you can’t use some parts of our websites or services.
How is your data used?
If you registered your email with us on an occasion such as, but not limited to, making a purchase, registering on our site or entering a social media or email competition, we may update you on our latest products, news and special offers via email with your consent. We will not sell, or make available, your name, address, email address or any other personal information to any third party without your permission. Your data will only be stored in the UK.
The steps we take to secure your data include:
- Limited access to the website backend by a limited number of authorised users who have agreed to abide by the GDPR
Accessing your data
It’s your personal data and you have certain rights relating to it. When it comes to marketing communications, you can ask us not to send you these at any time – just follow the unsubscribe instructions contained in the marketing communication, or send a request to us by email.
Storage methods and duration
We will not keep your personal data for longer than is necessary for the purposes described in this policy. We will keep personal data while your account is active. The information may be retained and used by Wine at Home for a reasonable period, reflecting our need to meet any legal or regulatory requirements, or to resolve a legal dispute. We may also keep different types of personal data for different lengths of time (for instances, we may need to keep certain personal data relating to your purchases in order to comply with HMRC’s VAT reporting requirements). This means we may retain information after an individual ceases to use our services or after the individual has ceased interacting with us. Except where the law, authorities or regulatory bodies require us to retain it for longer, we retain browsing history for a reasonable period after it was generated.
Protecting your security
We may use personal information provided by you in order to conduct appropriate anti-fraud checks. Personal information that you provide may be disclosed to a credit reference or fraud prevention agency, which may keep a record of that information. This is done only to confirm your identity; a credit check is not performed, and your credit rating is unaffected.
Third-party sites
Our site may contain links to and from the websites of our partner networks, advertisers and other third parties. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that they have their own privacy policies and that we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. Please check their policies before you submit any personal data.
Age verification
We are committed to being a responsible supplier of alcohol and promote a responsible attitude to drinking. We may use personal information provided by you in order to conduct appropriate age verification checks. Personal information that you provide may be disclosed to an age verification agency, which may keep a record of that information. This is done only to confirm your age.
Checking your Details
If you wish to verify the details you have submitted to us, you may do so by contacting us using the details provided below. Our security procedures mean that we may request proof of identity before we reveal information. This proof of identity will take the form of your email address and password submitted upon registration. You must therefore keep this information safe as you will be responsible for any action which we take in response to a request from someone using your email and password.
