Thank you for your support of Quilceda Creek Vintners, Inc. Protecting your privacy is important to us. The following privacy policy details how Quilceda Creek Winery collects, uses and safeguards information you provide to us on our Website, at the Winery, or that you otherwise provide to us, which personally identifies you, as well as general, non-personal information that is automatically collected from our Website.

The terms “Quilceda Creek,” “Quilceda Creek Winery,” “Quilceda Creek Vintners,” “the Winery,” “us” or “we” refer to Quilceda Creek Winery, the owner of Quilceda Creek Winery, and/or its subsidiaries or affiliates, and this website (“Site”). The terms “you,” “your” or “customer” refer to the user or viewer of this Site or customer of the Winery.

Please read this privacy policy carefully. If you do not agree with our practices, please do not register, subscribe, create an account, make purchases or otherwise interact with this Site. By visiting and using the features on the Site (including mailing list sign up, event registration, other Site features) and browsing, or by providing us with your personal information, you agree to this privacy policy. If you are not a resident of the United States, you understand and agree that we may store your information in the United States.

Our Commitment To Your Privacy

We will not sell or share your personal information without your consent. However, we may collect, use and share aggregate, anonymous information about our users. If you have questions or concerns about your personal data, please contact us via our site at www.quilcedacreek.com/contact.html.

Individuals Under Twenty-One

You must be of legal age to use the Site or to purchase any alcoholic beverage. If you wish to purchase any alcohol containing beverage from us, you may be required to provide personal information sufficient to verify that you are over 21 years of age. If you do not provide information to verify that you are of legal age, we cannot provide any services to you. We also cannot ship any product to you if you do not provide an address at which a person over the legal age is available to receive the product.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under 21, nor do we direct any of our content to individuals under 21. If we learn that we collected the personal information of a minor, we will take steps to delete the information as soon as possible.

If the information we or our service providers have on file for you does not show you to be of legal age or shows an address where we are unable to ship, or your payment information fails to be authorized, we will not be able to process your order. If any of those issues occur, please contact us at info@quilcedacreek.com and we will attempt to resolve the issue.

These third-parties are considered data processors. We have a contractual commitment in place with each of these processors to ensure their adherence to privacy rules and policies, or otherwise adhere to the published terms and conditions of their services. We also require data processors to keep any information they receive confidential and use the personal information shared with them solely to provide services on behalf of Quilceda Creek and the customer.

Your Rights to Access or Correct Your Data, and ‘To Be Forgotten’

If you would like us to delete your data, please email info@quilcedacreek.com. We may continue to retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

If you choose to exercise your data rights, we will require your full name and the contact information you provided at the time your account was created to verify your identity.
