Protecting your privacy is important to us. We hope the following statement will help you understand how Creative Wines International collects, uses and safeguards the personal information you provide to us on our Website. 

Security

When you send confidential personal account data such as a credit card number to us on Creative Wines International Websites, we require that a "secure session" first be established using Secure Socket Layer (SSL). 

Information Collection

When you browse creativewinesintl.com and have not registered for any online service from Creative Wines International, you browse anonymously. Personal information such as your name, address, phone number or E-mail address is not collected as you browse. Creative Wines International does, however, use "cookies" to collect information about how our site is used. Information, such as the server your computer is logged onto, your browser type (for example, Netscape or Internet Explorer), and whether you responded to an Creative Wines International banner ad or E-mail is collected and tracked in aggregate. This information is used for the purpose of measuring response rates to banner ads and E-mail offers.

When you place an order for POS items, we collect your name, mailing address, phone number, e-mail address, comments, and order information. We set a cookie on your computer so the next time you place an order, the form is automatically filled out for your convenience. If you do not allow cookies to be set the form will not be filled out the next time you place an order. 

Registration for Online Products and Services

In order to provide you with a particular product or service online, we may request that you voluntarily supply us with personal information, including your E-mail address or account number for purposes such as correspondence, site registration, checking your bill, making a purchase, or participating in online surveys and enabling us to provide an online product or service to you in an efficient manner.

If you are known to us as a registered user of our online services, we may combine information about your use of creativewinesintl.com and the online product or service you utilize with certain other online and offline information we have about you as a customer and information you have provided to us as well as information available from external sources, such as census bureau data, in order to customize your online experience and present you with relevant online and offline offers and updates. We also use a "cookie" to enable our server to recognize you as a registered online service user when you re-enter our site.

Information Use

We may use information you have given us to, for example, provide a service, ensure proper billing, measure consumer interest in our various services and inform you about products and services. If you have provided your E-mail address to us or to a company we’ve partnered with to make their products and services available to you, we may send you E-mail offers. We may also send you E-mail offers if you have provided your E-mail address to a third party and have actively chosen or requested, on an opt-in basis, to receive E-mail offers from other parties. These offers may be based on information you provided in your initial transaction with us, in surveys, from information that may indicate purchasing preferences and lifestyle, as well as information available from external sources, such as census bureau data. These E-mail offers come directly from Creative Wines International. You can opt out from receiving E-mail offers from Creative Wines International as described below in the section, Declining E-mail offers below.

When we send E-mails to you, we may be able to identify information about your E-mail address, such as whether you can read graphic-rich html E-mails. If your E-mail address is html-enabled, we may choose to send you graphic-rich html E-mails.

We may send you offers on behalf of our business partners. Keep in mind that if you take advantage of an offer from a Creative Wines International business partner and become their customer, they may independently wish to send offers to you. In this case, you will need to inform them separately if you wish to decline receiving future offers from them. 

Our goal is to deliver offers to people who we believe will find them of value. Offers are developed and managed under strict conditions designed to safeguard the security and privacy of customer personal information.

If you have placed a POS order we may provide your order information to the brand so they can ship items directly to you.

Declining E-mail Offers

Creative Wines International provides customers with an easy means to decline receiving E-mail offers. Although some customers tell us they appreciate receiving notice of these carefully designed opportunities, we recognize the importance of providing you with choices. At any time, you may request to discontinue receiving these offers from us by simply replying to the E-mail and informing us of your preferences. All E-mail offers that you receive from Creative Wines International will inform you of how to decline receiving further E-mail offers. You may submit a request to decline receiving further E-Mail offers online at any time.
