Your Privacy

At Decemil Estate Wines, we recognize and respect your privacy. This Site Privacy Policy (or “Privacy Policy”) describes our policies and procedures on the collection, use and disclosure of information you provide to us when you use the Decemil Estate Wines website located at https://decemilwines.com/ (the “Site”) and tells you about your privacy rights and how the law protects you.

Please note that this Privacy Policy may change from time to time. We will not reduce your rights under this Privacy Policy without your explicit consent, and we expect most such changes will be minor. Regardless, we will post any Privacy Policy changes on this page and, if the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice (including, for certain services, email notification of Privacy Policy changes).

  1. What Kind of Information We Collect From You When You Visit Our Site
    When you visit our Site, we may collect some basic information about your browser from Google Analytics. Examples of this information would be what type of browser and operating system you are using, how long you stayed on the Site and what pages you looked at. This helps us to understand how the Site is used and gives us insight into how we can make the shopping experience better.

    We also collect personal information about you when you check out of our store, including without limitation your name, address, postal code, phone number, email address and payment information. We need this information to process payment and ship merchandise to you.
  2. What We Do With the Information Collected
    The information you provide us is used to let you know about our wines, events we hold or participate in, other winery news you might find interesting, and to fulfill your wine orders.

    We may periodically use information you have provided to us to enhance our services and products. For example, we may engage a professional survey company to use your email address to request your participation in a Decemil Estate Wines online customer survey about your experiences with Decemil Estate Wines, in an effort to improve our service to you; such surveys are voluntary and tabulated anonymously. When you order products from us, we collect information about each transaction, including the transaction amount, a description of the goods or services being purchased, the names of the buyer, and the type of payment used. When you send email or other communication to us, we may retain those communications in order to process your inquiries, respond to your requests and improve our services. All information collected is kept in the strictest confidence.

    When you join our mailing list, we will send you an e-mail confirming you have been added to our list. If at any time you wish to be removed from our mailing list, simply follow the “unsubscribe” instructions at the bottom of any Decemil Estate Wines email you have received and you will be removed as quickly as possible and receive no further communications from Decemil Estate Wines electronically.

    If you supply us with your postal address online you may receive periodic mailings from us with information on our latest releases, order forms, and news about Decemil Estate Wines. To be removed from our postal mailing list, please contact Decemil Estate Wines by phone or email (PH: (805) 226-2828 or info@decemilwines.com).
    If you supply us with your telephone number, you may receive follow-up telephone contact from us regarding orders placed online.

    Please be aware as part of our promotional efforts, your Decemil Estate Wines Winery account username and password may be periodically sent to you in an email or mailed to you via the postal service to make it more convenient for you to access your online account. Please keep your log-in credentials confidential. 

    If you supply us with credit card and other payment information as part of your transaction, we will only share specific information (for example, your name and credit card number) with banks and other third parties in the financial system as necessary to process your transaction and maintain your account, and protect against fraud or other misconduct. For example, we may use card authorization and fraud screening services to verify that your credit or debit card information and address match the information that you provided to us.  The Decemil Estate Wines eCommerce platform adheres to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (“PCI DSS”) and is rated a Level 1 Service Provider.  Your credit card information is encrypted and securely stored as a token within the customer record and charges are initiated only at the time of payment processing. 
    In addition to the above, we use the information we collect to:
    • Provide our products and services to you;
    • Perform auditing, research and analysis in order to maintain, protect and improve our products and services; and 
    • Ensure the technical functioning of our network and order processing system.
  3. Who We Share Your Information With
    We understand that sensitivity of giving out personal information. Under no circumstances will we share any personal information that we collect with any third parties or websites. All of the information you give us is completely private and used solely for order processing and shipping. If you give us permission to send you marketing emails, then we use your email address for that purpose, but never does that email address get sold or distributed to any other website or list. 
  4. How We Safeguard Your Information and What You Can Do
    We take appropriate security measures to protect against the unauthorized access or use, alteration or loss of data, including without limitation, information that we have collected from you on our site. The security of your account also depends on keeping your account password confidential, and you should not share your account name or password with anyone. If you do share your account information with a third party, they will have access to your account and your personal information.
  5. Cookies
    Our Site also uses “cookie” technology to make your visits more convenient. These “cookies” are set so we may better customize your visit experience in the future. You are free to reject or “Not Accept” all cookies, but we will not be able to auto-enter your email address or customize your future visits.

    We may use Google Analytics to analyze traffic to this web site. Google Analytics does not create individual profiles for visitors. Unlike some tracking services Google Analytics does not have a database of individual profiles for each visitor. Google Analytics only collects aggregate data. For more information about Google Analytics privacy policy, please click here https://policies.google.com/privacy.
  6. Child Privacy
    Because of the nature of our business, our products and services are not designed to appeal to minors, and therefore we do not knowingly attempt to solicit or receive any information from children. Our terms and conditions of use require that access to the Site is limited to persons of legal age to purchase alcohol in their country of residence and in the country from which they are accessing the Site. If we have reason to believe that information is being provided by a person under the legal drinking age, we will not collect the information.
  7. Retention of Your Personal Data
    We will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your personal data only to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

    The Company will also retain usage data for internal analysis purposes. Usage data is generally retained for a shorter period of time, except when this data is used to strengthen the security or to improve the functionality of our Site, or if we are legally obligated to retain this data for longer time periods.
  8. Deletion Requests
    You have the right to delete or request that we assist you in deleting the personal information we have collected about you. Our Site may give you the ability to delete certain information and your account with us from within the Site. You may update, amend or delete your personal information at any time by signing into your account on the Site, if you have one, and visiting the account settings section. You may also contact us to request access to, correct or delete any personal information you have provided to us.

    Please note, however, that we may need to retain certain information when we have a legal obligation or lawful basis to do so.
  9. Inapplicability of Privacy Policies of any Linked Sites or Other Parties
    This Site may contain links to other sites such as our distributors and third parties. This Privacy Policy only addresses our use and disclosure of your personal information collected on our Site, if any. While we try to link only to sites that share our standards and respect for privacy, we are not responsible for the privacy practices of any third parties or the content of linked sites, although we do encourage you to read the applicable privacy policies and terms and conditions of such parties or web sites.

WINE-SPECIFIC CONDITIONS

  1. Legal Requirements – You must be 21 years of age or older to order or receive alcoholic beverages from Decemil Estate Wines. Receipt of shipments containing alcoholic beverages requires the signature of a sober adult (a person 21 years of age or older who is not intoxicated). Wines purchased from Decemil Estate Wines are for personal consumption only and may not be resold.
  2. Credit Card Charges – Orders are by credit card only. We accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express.
  3. Minimum Purchase – No minimum purchase is required.
  4. States Authorized for Direct Shipment – Due to the ever-changing nature of wine shipping laws, we may not be able to ship wines, directly or indirectly to certain states. If Decemil Estate Wines is unable to ship directly to your state, we may be able to arrange for the sale and shipment of our products through a third party. Please note that, when dealing through a third party, wine prices, discounts and shipping costs may differ from those initially quoted by Decemil Estate Wines.
  5. Shipping Costs – United Parcel Service (“UPS”) Ground is Decemil Estate Wines’ carrier of choice. Ground shipping is provided by UPS Ground at current market rates or at the rate specified from time-to-time by your Club Membership or special promotions, if any. If we choose to offer other shipping services such as Fed Ex Air or “Cold Pack”, and you select one of these shipping options, you will pay the current rate for such services , regardless of your wine club membership or purchase amount.
  6. Wine is a Delicate Commodity – Wine is perishable. Wine does not like extremes of temperature, and heat, humidity or cold winter weather may adversely affect the condition of your wine during shipment. Decemil Estate Wines is not responsible for, and will not replace, wine that is damaged by extreme weather conditions during shipment. When your wine order is picked up by the common carrier for delivery, responsibility for the wine becomes the responsibility of the purchaser.  We may choose to delay the shipment of wine orders if our carrier advises that weather conditions would put your wine at risk of damage.
