All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Your IP Address
Your IP address is a unique identifier we may use to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our Website tracking. We also may use your IP address to help identify you and to gather broad, demographic information.

Cookies
Darcie Kent Vineyards may use a feature on your Internet Web browser called a “cookie.” A cookie is a small piece of information stored on your hard drive. It assigns a unique identification number to your computer and helps us maintain your preferences between visits to provide a personalized experience for you.

Darcie Kent Vineyards may use cookies to tell us whether or not you have visited our Website before and to track click-throughs to any of our advertisements. We also collect non-personally identifiable information, such as anonymous session numbers, with cookies.

Darcie Kent Vineyards may allow other companies that are presenting advertisements on some Darcie Kent Vineyards pages to set and access cookies on your computer. Darcie Kent Vineyards does not control cookies from third-party advertisers. Other companies’ use of their cookies is subject to their own privacy policies, not the privacy policy of Darcie Kent Vineyards. Advertisers or other companies do not have access to Darcie Kent Vineyards cookies. The use of advertising cookies sent by third-party servers is standard in the Internet industry.

Darcie Kent Vineyards does not house or collect any personally identifiable information about you unless you knowingly provide it.

Contests and Promotions
When you enter a contest or take part in a promotion, we may ask for your name, mailing address and email address. Should a third party sponsor the contest or promotion, that party will have access to this information. We need this information in order to notify our winners and, when applicable, ship the winners’ prizes.

Disclosure of information to Outside Parties
Darcie Kent Vineyards does not and will not share your information with any outside parties unless you have knowingly consented to do so (e.g., by entering a contest, promotion or sweepstakes for which we would publish a list of winners). We may collect demographic and profile data, which is aggregated and shared with advertisers. Here’s an example of what our advertisers would receive. “Of the 25,371 clicks your banner received, 38% of those were by users between the ages of 25-34.”
