At Ditchley Cider Works, we’re committed to protecting your privacy. Federal and various state laws require us to tell you how we collect, use, share, and protect your personal information. These laws also limit how we can use your personal information. Please read this policy carefully to understand what we do with the personal information we collect. When you contact us to help you with a question or concern, any personal information you provide is voluntary. We collect and use only the minimum information necessary to respond to your questions and concerns. We may also collect your personal information under other circumstances. In most cases, we collect limited personal information, such as name, address, telephone number, birth date, and/or email address. In limited cases, such as with purchases or reservation bookings, we may collect other personal information such as credit card information.

 

Examples of when we might collect your personal information include, but are not limited to:

• When you make a purchase from our E-Store; When you enter into a contest or promotion; When you subscribe to our newsletter, cider club(s) or charcuterie club(s), submit information for booking a reservation;

• When you post a comment on our social media pages; and When you submit a question or comment on our contact us page.

• Where does your information go?

Within Ditchley Cider Works, we may use your personal information to process a purchase, contest or promotion entry, or to help us properly respond to your comment or question.

We may also use third parties to help provide some of the services we offer on this website, and sometimes your information may be shared with those third parties. These vendors have agreed not to disclose any of your personal information for any purpose unrelated to the services they provide for this website or Ditchley Cider Works.

For example:

• When you make a purchase, your information may be shared with vendors in order to fill your order and with credit card companies to process the transaction. When you submit your resume, your information is processed through a third party vendor.

• When you enter into a contest or subscribe to our newsletter, your information may be shared with third-party vendors to help facilitate those contests and/or deliver the newsletter.

We may also share aggregated non-identifiable information about our general readership with third parties in order to help market our products and develop new vendor and customer relationships.
