Wineanorak.com's
privacy policy
Our privacy policy is pretty
straightforward: we will not sell or in any other way make available
your details to a third party.
Competitions
The one potential exception to this rule concerns competitions in
conjunction with retailers: if you choose to enter a competition, it is
assumed that you do not mind the retailer in question having your e-mail
address. In any case, you will be given the option to withhold
your details by means of a check box in the competition form.
Mailing list
Individuals will only be added to the wineanorak.com mailing list at
their own request. We will not automatically add anyone to our mailing
list. We will include details of how to be removed from the list with
each mailing that is sent out. We will promptly honour requests by
individuals to be deleted from the mailing list.
Site visitors
We do not collect or track IP addresses of visitors to
the site, nor do we use our own cookies (see note below about google
analytics, though). However, our banner rotation software logs the IP
addresses of all those who have viewed each advertising banner in the
last 24 h period, but this information is password protected and is only
available to the site administrator (me) and the individual advertisers.
I do not use or archive this information.
