Last Modified: March 24, 2021
The Vino Coterie website (our “Website”) is operated by (“Vino Coterie” or “we” or “our”). Vino Coterie wants to make your online experience pleasant, convenient and safe. Your privacy is very important to us. This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) describes the information we collect about you and how we use this information.
What Kind of Information Does Vino Coterie Collect?
Our primary goal in collecting information from you is to provide you with a positive experience while you use our Website, to hear your comments, to respond to your inquiries, and to provide you with access to our services. “Personal Information” is information about an identifiable individual as more particularly defined by privacy legislation. Vino Coterie may collect both Personal Information and browsing information about your use of the Website (“Browsing Information”). Personal Information includes information such as your name, address, phone number and email address. Browsing Information includes information such as: 1) technical information, including the date and time you access the Website, your Internet protocol address, device type, internet browser name, and web browsing history; and 2) service usage information, such as records and history about transactions and preferences, and the demographic, geographic, apparel sizes and psychographic information, and other feedback you supply to us. Also, when you register or create an online account/profile with us, contact customer service, participate in our surveys, or send us testimonials, feedback or submissions, you are providing us with your personal information.
If you pay by credit card, debit card or check, Vino Coterie does not maintain this account information, as it is provided to a third party vendor. Vino Coterie utilizes Stripe, a third party company, to handle credit card and bank account transactions. Vino Coterie is not responsible for such transactions. No sensitive payment information (e.g. credit card numbers, bank account numbers, etc.) is sent to or maintained on our servers. Therefore the burden of PCI Compliance rests solely on Stripe.
How Does Vino Coterie Use My Information?
When we collect information from you, such information may be used for one or more of the following reasons:

= denotes a processing activity that will require your affirmative (opt-in) consent before we use your information as indicated.
In order for us to maintain the accuracy of your Personal Information and improve our communication with you, we may also combine the information we collect with other public demographic information. On rare occasions we may also be required to disclose your information as is required by law pursuant to lawful requests such as subpoenas, court or agency orders, or as we may reasonably determine to be necessary to protect our rights or the rights of others, to avert harm to persons or property, or to enforce this Privacy Policy.
Does Vino Coterie Share My Information With Third Parties?
We will share certain Personal Information and Browsing Information we collect about you with third parties who perform services for us or with whom we contract for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. For example: we may use third parties to host our Website or data, operate certain features, send e-mails, print or mailings, and analyze data and our advertising effectiveness.
We may share Browsing Information, and non-personal information including demographic information with select third parties on an anonymous basis (that is, in a way that does not connect your non-personal Information to your Personal Information or disclose your Personal Information in any fashion).
If Vino Coterie, or substantially all of our assets, are sold, or Vino Coterie reorganizes or merges into another company, then customer information, including Personal Information, will likely be one of the transferred assets.
On rare occasions, we may be required to disclose your Personal Information as required by law and as necessary to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on us. Or we may need to do so to protect our customer’s rights.
