Privacy Policy
We respect your privacy and are committed to the best management of your personal information while making sure we comply with the privacy laws.
In order to provide you with the goods and services, we need to collect personal information. Personal information is defined as information that can identify you in some way.
This privacy policy describes what personal information we collect and how we use it. We do not use or share personal information for any purpose other than for the purpose for which it was disclosed. However, we may disclose personal information to our service providers to ensure the best experience for you.
Collecting, using and protecting your personal information
We only collect your personal information to provide you with the best services. In order to do this, we may ask for your name, email address, phone number, courier address, date of birth; and upon purchasing your credit card details.
You must not provide us with personal information about another person unless that person has given authorisation through you, for us to collect, use and disclose their personal information for the purposes described in this privacy policy.
All web servers track basic information and when visiting our website we may automatically collect information about your computer’s operating system; browser details; your computer’s Internet Protocol (IP) Address and geolocation; pages visited on our site, how you were referred to and the time spent on each web page.
We use your personal information for the purpose of carrying on our business as an online retailer, to deliver our goods to you, securing safe payments and letting you know about our business and offers, and any other related activities you may expect from us.
We may also use that information for a secondary purpose that is related to the above, or otherwise where permitted by law.
Winetopia takes all reasonable measures to ensure the best protection of your personal information from loss, unauthorised access or use, modification, disclosure or any other misuse. We store your information on cloud servers and only work with suppliers that have the highest level of protection in place.
Cookies
Where necessary, shop.winetopia.co.nz uses cookies to store information about a visitor’s preferences and history in order to better serve the visitor and/or present the visitor with customized content. Cookies are small text files that are placed in your browser by the websites you visit. They are widely used to help users navigate websites efficiently, to perform certain functions on the sites and/or to provide site owners with information about how their sites are used.
Disclosure of your personal information
In order to provide you with the best experience, we only disclose your personal information for the primary purpose for which it was collected or for a related secondary purpose where you would reasonably expect us to disclose the information. We may also disclose your personal information in any other way that is required or authorised by you or the law.
We may disclose your personal information to third parties which include but are not limited to our payment gateway, marketing, logistics and delivery partners and technology support.
Advertising and analytics tools
We use third party analytics and advertising tools, including Google, Meta (Facebook and Instagram) and TikTok, to help us understand how visitors use our website and to show you relevant ads on other websites and apps. These partners use cookies, pixels and similar technologies to collect information such as your IP address, device and browser details, pages viewed and purchases made on our site. They use this information to measure our campaigns and to show you more relevant adverts for Winetopia and other products and services.
We may also share hashed contact information, such as your email address, with these partners so they can match our customers with their users and show or exclude our ads to those audiences and create lookalike audiences. We do not allow these partners to use this information for their own independent marketing.
Overseas disclosure
Some of our service providers, including advertising and analytics partners such as Google, Meta and TikTok, are located outside New Zealand. When we disclose your personal information to them, we take reasonable steps to ensure it is protected by privacy standards that are comparable to the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020.

We take all reasonable steps to ensure your personal information we hold is correct.
