The Chiswick Wine Society takes your privacy seriously. Please read the following to learn more about our privacy policy.

What this privacy policy covers
This policy covers how the Chiswick Wine Society treats personal information that it collects and receives. Personal information is information about you that is personally identifiable such as your name, address, email address, or phone number and that is not otherwise publicly available. This policy does not apply to the practices of companies that the Chiswick Wine Society does not own or control or to people that the Chiswick Wine Society does not employ or manage.

Collection and use of personal information
As a visitor to the Chiswick Wine Society website, you may access the website without providing any personal information. However, if you wish to register to join the Chiswick Wine Society on the website or attend one of its tastings, you will be asked to provide certain information about yourself by filling out and submitting an online form. It is completely optional for you to register and register on the site. If you elect to register, however, the Chiswick Wine Society may ask that you provide us personal information, such as your first and last name, address (including post code), e-mail address and telephone numbers. Some of the information that we ask you to provide is identified as mandatory and some as voluntary. If you do not provide the mandatory data with respect to the registration on the website, you will not be able to complete that activity.

When you use the website, the Chiswick Wine Society may also collect certain technical and routing information about your computer to facilitate your use of the Chiswick Wine Society website and its services. For example, we may log environmental variables, such as the Internet Protocol ("IP") address of your computer. We use these environmental variables to facilitate and track your use of the website and its services. The Chiswick Wine Society also uses such environmental variables to measure traffic patterns on the website. Without expressly informing you in each particular circumstance, we do not match such information with any of your personal information.

Information Sharing and Disclosure
The Chiswick Wine Society does not rent, sell, or share personal information about you with other people or non-affiliated companies except to provide services you've requested, when we have your permission, or under the following circumstances:
• We respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims;
• We believe it is necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of the Chiswick Wine Society's terms of use, or as otherwise required by law;
• We transfer information about you if the Chiswick Wine Society is acquired by or merged with another company. In this event, The Chiswick Wine Society will notify you before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

Cookies
In order to improve our site, we may use "cookies" to track your visit. A cookie is a small amount of data that is transferred to your browser by a Web server and can only be read by the server that gave it to you. It functions as your identification card, and enables the Chiswick Wine Society to record your preferences. It cannot be executed as code or deliver viruses. Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it.

While the Chiswick Wine Society uses cookies to track your visit to the Chiswick Wine Society, and the IP/Internet address of your computer is automatically logged, the Chiswick Wine Society does not generally use this information to identify you personally.

Confidentiality and Security
We limit access to personal information about you to employees who reasonably need to come into contact with that information to provide products or services to you or in order to do their jobs.

Changes to this Privacy Policy
Any policy changes, either due to business reasons or future changes in legislation, will be posted on this page and, if substantial, may be promoted on the website or through e-mail notification.
