Privacy Policy

At Carmel Cellars Group, your privacy matters to us. We only collect the minimum information needed to keep our website working well, and we never sell your data.

 

Comments

When you leave a comment, we collect the details you provide along with basic technical info (like your IP address) to help prevent spam. If you use Gravatar, your profile picture may show next to your comment.

 

Media

If you upload photos, please avoid including location data, as others could download and view it.

 

Cookies

We use cookies to make your visit easier:

  • Comments: Save your name and details for future comments

  • Login: Keep you logged in if you choose

  • Preferences: Save your display settings

These cookies last from a day to a year, depending on the setting.

 

Embedded Content

Some articles may include videos, images, or content from other websites. Interacting with this content is the same as visiting those sites directly, and they may collect data about you.

 

How We Use & Share Data

  • If you request a password reset, your IP address may appear in the reset email.

  • Comments may also be checked automatically to reduce spam.

 

Data Retention

  • Comments and their details are stored indefinitely to make follow-ups easier.

  • Registered users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except usernames).

 

Your Rights

You’re always welcome to:

  • Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you

  • Ask us to delete your data (except where we need to keep it for legal or security reasons)
