By submitting your information to us or by using the Platform, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you should not access or use the Platform. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms of Use.

  1. How does Hush Hush Wine Club collect my personal information?

Hush Hush Wine Club receives information about Users in several ways, including information that you voluntarily provide to us, information that is passively collected when you engage with the Platform, and in some cases, from third parties.

Information That You Provide: When you register for an Account on the Platform we ask for your name, email address and information to confirm you are of legal age. We may also collect additional information that you provide to us, such as favorite products on the Site, purchase history, telephone number, shipping details, payment information, and communications.

Automatically Collected Information

Cookies and Similar Technologies: We use cookies and similar technology when you visit our Site. A cookie is a small data file that is placed on the hard drive of your computer when you visit a website. A session cookie expires immediately when you end your session (i.e., close your browser). A persistent cookie stores information on the hard drive so when you end your session and return to the same website, at a later date, the cookie information is still available. We use cookies to improve the quality of our services when you use the Platform. We also use cookies to remind us of who you are, tailor our products, services and advertising, estimate our audience size, track visits and sales, and to process your order and/or analyze how you use the Site. Certain of our partners or vendors may use cookies and collect information on our behalf.

In some of our email messages, we may use a "click-through URL" linked to content on the Platform. When a User clicks onto one of these URLs, the User will pass through our server before arriving at the destination page. We track this click-through data to help us determine User interest in certain subject matter and measure the effectiveness of our communications. You can avoid being tracked in this way by not clicking text or graphic links in emails from Hush Hush Wine Club.

Usage Data: Whether you are logged in to your Account or not, our servers automatically record information that your browser sends when you visit our Site (“Usage Data”). Usage Data may include information such as the manufacturer and model of your mobile device; your Internet Service Provider (ISP); your device's Internet Protocol ("IP") address (or other device identifiers), browser type, and operating system; referring/exit pages; clickstream data; pages of the Site that you visit, the time spent on those pages, information you search for on the Site, and access times and dates; and other statistics.

We use Usage Data for technical administration of the Platform, including to monitor and analyze use of the Site, to increase the functionality and user-friendliness, and to better tailor the Platform to our Users' needs. Usage Data may be non-identifying or it may be associated with you. Whenever we associate Usage Data with your personal information, we will treat it as personal information.

Third Parties: We may receive information from third parties such as advertising partners, public databases, or social media platforms, to supplement the information we receive from Users. If we do so, this Policy governs how we can use that information.

  1. How is my personal information used?

  • provide, maintain, and improve the Platform;
  • send you technical notices, updates, security alerts, and support and administrative messages;
  • respond to your comments, questions, and requests;
  • provide customer service, including account creation and order fulfillment;
  • communicate with you about our products and services, special events, and to provide you with news and information we think will be of interest to you;
  • manage special events and promotions;

To the extent that you are notified of uses of your personal information which are different from those described in this Privacy Policy during your enrollment in any particular event or promotion, the uses of which you are specifically notified will govern.

Legal and Law Enforcement: We may share your information law enforcement, governmental agencies, or authorized third parties, in response to a verified request relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity or any other activity that may expose us, you, or any other person to legal liability or if we believe disclosure is in accordance with, or required by, any applicable law or legal process.
