Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 23, 2026

Wine Citys operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products, and services (the "Services"), to provide you with a curated shopping experience. The Services are powered by Shopify. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and otherwise process your personal information when you visit, use, or make a purchase through our Services, or communicate with us. If there is a conflict between our Terms of Service and this Privacy Policy regarding the collection, processing, or disclosure of your personal information, this Privacy Policy governs those matters.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By accessing or using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read and understand this Privacy Policy. Where applicable law requires consent for particular processing activities, we will seek that consent separately.

  • Legal and business transaction recipients: Authorities, professional advisers, or relevant parties when required by law or in connection with a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or other business transaction, or when necessary to protect our rights and the rights of others.

We do not disclose personal information indiscriminately. The categories of information disclosed and the purposes of disclosure depend on the services and features we actually use.

Data Sharing and Your Privacy Choices

Depending on where you reside, you may have the right to opt out of certain sales or sharing of personal information or processing for targeted advertising, as defined by applicable law.

You can submit an opt-out request through our Data Sharing Opt-Out page. This page must be published and configured correctly for the available controls to work.

Relationship with Shopify

Our Services are hosted by Shopify, which processes personal information relating to your access to and use of our store to provide and improve its services. Information you submit through our store may be transmitted to Shopify and to third-party service providers, including providers located in countries other than your own.

Depending on the Shopify features and settings we use, Shopify may also process information from interactions with our store and other merchants to provide enhanced services, analytics, personalization, and advertising-related features. Shopify's processing of information for its own purposes is governed by its applicable privacy terms.

For more information, please review the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy and visit the Shopify Privacy Portal to learn about available privacy choices.

Third-Party Websites and Links

Our Services may contain links to third-party websites or platforms that we do not operate or control. Their privacy, security, and data-handling practices are governed by their own policies. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of third-party websites. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies before providing personal information.

Children's Data

Our Services are not intended for children who are not legally permitted to purchase or access alcoholic beverages under applicable law. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us using the details below so that we can review the request and take appropriate action as required by law.

We will apply any applicable age restrictions and verification requirements to the sale and delivery of alcoholic beverages. The precise requirements depend on the locations in which we operate and sell.

Security and Retention of Your Information

We use appropriate measures designed to protect personal information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please avoid sending sensitive information through unsecured communication channels.

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our Services, maintain accounts, fulfill transactions, comply with legal and regulatory obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and protect our legitimate business interests, subject to applicable law.
