PRIVACY POLICY

Security of your information

The Wine Syndicate maintains practices and procedures designed to keep your information secure and confidential. We use generally accepted industry security standards to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security and correctly use personal information. However, no commercial method of information transfer over the Internet or electronic data storage is known to be 100% secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of that information during its transmission or its storage in our systems. We restrict and limit access to customer information only to those of our employees or authorized service providers who need it to carry out their business functions, and we educate our employees about safeguarding customer information and preventing its unauthorized access, disclosure, or use.
