Privacy Policy

At Hampshire Wine School we believe in being open and up front with our customers, so with this in mind we have developed our Privacy Policy - a quick and simple summary explaining how we manage, share and look after your information. More information is supplied in a separate pdf document which can be emailed to you (CLICK HERE to request a copy of the signed document).

This privacy policy sets out how Hampshire Wine School uses and protects any information that you give us when you use this website.

What Information we collect about you and how it is used

When booking a wine tasting or wine course with us, we request your name, email address, delivery address, phone number (optional). We collect this data to process your registrations for any courses or tastings and to deliver your purchased services to you as well as to send you information regarding the course or the tasting on which you are registered (or have registered interest in). In some cases, your booking requires us to post materials to you as well, such as in the case with gift vouchers.

When contacting us with regard to Corporate or Private Wine Training, Tastings or Events via the website enquiry form we request your name, email address, phone number and company name (if applicable). This information is used to respond to your request for information on how we can potentially assist with your corporate or private event enquiry. If Hampshire Wine School is not best suited to assist with your request, we may provide these details to another Franchise Owner within the Local Wine School network who can better cater to the needs of your request and/or enquiry. We do not share this information outside the Local Wine School network. In some circumstances, the data may be stored in our internal support system for further action. This data is stored indefinitely for reference but you may request its deletion by contacting us as below.

How we collect your personal data

When you provide it to us directly (for example, when you book onto one of our tastings or courses, or subscribe to the Sussex Wine School newsletter)

When our systems collect information or personal data indirectly. Please see below for additional information around Cookies.

Sharing your personal data with third parties

In order to fulfil our newsletter emails, we collect and store your first name, last name, email address and company name (if given). We use a third-party provider, Mailchimp, to deliver our newsletter emails. We gather statistics around email opening and clicks using industry standard technologies including clear gifs to help us monitor and improve our newsletters. For more information, please see Mailchimp’s privacy notice.

We are also required to co-operate with regulators (like the Information Commissioners Office) and law enforcement agencies (like the police or the Serious Fraud Office). Although it does not happen often, regulators and law enforcement agencies can require use to share information with them as part of an investigation, and this may include your personal data.
