Privacy Policy

Your privacy is very important to us. At Napa Wine Clubs we have a few fundamental principles:

Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals:

It is NapaWineClubs.com’s (“Napa Wine Clubs”) policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Napa Wine Clubs collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Napa Wine Clubs’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Napa Wine Clubs’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Napa Wine Clubs may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Napa Wine Clubs also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Napa Wine Clubs does not use such information to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Napa Wine Clubs’s websites choose to interact with Napa Wine Clubs in ways that require Napa Wine Clubs to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Napa Wine Clubs gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for an account to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Napa Wine Clubs – by purchasing access to a pro membership, for example – are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Napa Wine Clubs collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Napa Wine Clubs. Napa Wine Clubs does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

Napa Wine Clubs may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, Napa Wine Clubs may monitor the most popular documents or use spam to help identify future spam. Napa Wine Clubs may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Napa Wine Clubs does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Napa Wine Clubs discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Napa Wine Clubs’s behalf or to provide services available at Napa Wine Clubs’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Napa Wine Clubs’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Napa Wine Clubs will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Napa Wine Clubs discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when Napa Wine Clubs believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Napa Wine Clubs, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Napa Wine Clubs website and have supplied your email address, Napa Wine Clubs may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Napa Wine Clubs and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Napa Wine Clubs takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
