This Privacy Policy explains how Ashby Williams Wine PTY LTD (ABN 54 656 102 886), trading as Pare Wine ("we", "us", "our"), collects, uses, stores, and discloses personal information. We are committed to handling personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).
We collect personal information that you provide directly to us when you:
The personal information we collect may include your name, email address, phone number, postal and delivery address, and payment details. Payment card information is processed directly by our payment provider and is not stored by us.
We also collect limited technical information automatically when you visit our website, including your IP address, browser type, and pages visited. This is used solely for site operation and security purposes.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. We use them in two ways:
We do not use cookies for advertising, and we do not sell information collected through cookies.
You can opt out of Google Analytics entirely by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Most browsers let you refuse or delete cookies through their settings. Blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of the site from working correctly.
We use personal information to:
We will not use your personal information for purposes other than those listed above without first seeking your consent.
We only send marketing emails to people who have asked for them. You are added to our mailing list when you tick the consent box at checkout or when joining the Wine Club, or when you subscribe using the sign-up form on this site. The box is never pre-ticked, and we do not add you on the strength of a purchase or enquiry alone.
When you subscribe to the newsletter, we send a short welcome sequence — three emails over the first three days — and after that you will only hear from us occasionally, when there is something worth saying.
You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in the footer of any marketing email we send, or by contacting us directly. Unsubscribing takes effect immediately and stops the welcome sequence as well as any future newsletters. Transactional messages — order confirmations, shipping notifications and Wine Club shipment notices — are not marketing and are sent regardless.
We may share your personal information with third parties in the following circumstances:
We take reasonable steps to ensure these parties handle your information in accordance with the Privacy Act. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
We may disclose personal information if required to do so by law, or if we believe such disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of Pare Wine, our customers, or others.
Some of the service providers described above are located outside Australia, which means your personal information is stored and processed overseas.
These providers may also store or process information in other countries in which they operate. Before disclosing personal information overseas we take reasonable steps to ensure the recipient handles it in a way consistent with the Australian Privacy Principles.
We store personal information on secure servers. We take reasonable technical and organisational steps to protect your information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification, and disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.
We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law.
You have the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details below.
Our website may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to read their privacy policies.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The current version will always be available on this page, with the date of the most recent update noted at the top. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
