1. What information is collected?

We collect two types of information: Identifying Information and Non-Identifying Information.

Types of Identifying Information we collect

When you create a profile, or when you enter such information on this Site, we may collect personal information from you including your:

  • Salutation
  • First and last name
  • Email address
  • Phone number
  • Billing and shipping addresses
  • Payment information
  • Date of birth
  • Order history
  • Winery visit history
  • Profile name and password

We may also collect information that you provide about people you know. For example, we collect your gift recipient’s contact information and date of birth to process your gift orders, or that of the guests that will be accompanying you on a visit to the winery.

Types of Non-Identifying Information we collect

We may also collect general information resulting from your activity on the site, including your preferences, insights, and other tendencies. This may include anonymous “traffic data” or tracking information provided by the website’s host or similar provider of such information (e.g., Forter, Google Analytics, Stripe) that does not personally identify you, but may be helpful for fraud analysis, marketing purposes or for improving the services we offer.  Fraud analysis includes tracking the behavior of visitors and comparing their actions to known and tested behavioral trends. At purchase, the model reviews the numerous attributes associated with the transaction to assess the validity of the transaction.

Analytics is the process of collecting, analyzing, and reporting aggregate data. This information may include which pages visitors visit, how long visitors stay on a particular page, and where visitors are located. It may also provide information about what browser, network, or device is used to visit our site. To learn more about Google Analytics and how to opt out, please visit www.google.com/analytics/learn/privacy.html. In addition, when you visit our site, we may also log your IP address, and a unique identifier for your computer or other access device. This helps us diagnose problems with our server, to administer our site, or to display the content according to your preferences.

We also use cookies and web beacons

Cookies are used by many websites. A cookie is a string of information that the website you visit transfers to your computer for identification purposes. Cookies can be used to follow your activity on the website and that information helps websites to understand your preferences and improve your website experience. Cookies are also used for such activities as remembering your user name and password, if you use such a feature on this site. Based on the software you are using to access the website, you can turn off all cookies in the event you prefer not to receive them. You can also have your computer warn you whenever cookies are being used. There are also software products available that can manage cookies for you. Please be aware, however, that when you choose to reject cookies, this choice may limit the functionality of the Opus One website and you may lose access to some of its features.

Another tool used by many websites are web beacons. A web beacon is an invisible pixel-sized graphic image on a web page, web-based document or e-mail message. It helps us view the URL of the page on which the beacon appears and can provide the time when the site, a document or an email is viewed. They can be used to confirm the receipt of, and response to our emails, including those that you forward to friends and family; and they help deliver a more personalized online experience.

Location Information

We may also receive and collect location based information including your geolocation. If your device and software allow for the collection of location information, we will collect information about the WiFi routers closest to you, cell IDs of the cell towers closest to you, and the strength of your WiFi or cell signal. We use this information to return an estimated location. Please be aware, however, that when you decline to provide location information (see §5 below), this choice may limit the functionality of the Opus One website and you may lose access to some of its features.

In order to protect both the personal information and the general information that we receive from you through the website, we have implemented various security measures.  We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely. All information you provide to us is stored in secure managed servers. We are compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). In addition, our third-party payment processing vendors are also PCI compliant. Where we have given you, or where you have chosen, a password which enables you to access certain parts of the site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask that you never share your password with anyone.  If you believe the confidentiality of your password has been compromised, you may change your password via your profile or the “forgot password?” feature.

While we implement the above security measures on our site, you should be aware that 100% security is not possible. Whenever you give out personal information online there is a risk that third parties may intercept and use that information. While we strive to protect your personal information and privacy, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you disclose online. By using this site, you expressly acknowledge and agree that we cannot guarantee the security of any data provided to or received by us through this site and that any personal information, general information, or other data or information received from you through the site is provided at your own risk.
