At WINC Wire, we are committed to respecting your privacy and protecting your data. This Cookies and GDPR Policy explains how we collect, use, and manage personal data through cookies and similar technologies, in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy Directive (EU Cookie Law).
By visiting or interacting with our website, you acknowledge and agree to the practices described in this policy.
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device (such as a computer, tablet, or mobile) to improve your browsing experience, analyse traffic, and deliver personalised content and advertisements.
Although cookies are essential for certain website functionalities, they can also be used to track online behaviour and collect personal information, especially when deployed by third parties.

The ePrivacy Directive, also known as the “Cookie Law,” requires that websites obtain informed consent before using most types of cookies. This law complements and, in some cases, overrides the GDPR when it comes to electronic communications and data-tracking technologies like cookies.
