Privacy & Cookies

Last updated 2026. This policy explains how Canto Wines handles your personal information and uses cookies on cantowines.co.uk.

Who we are

Canto Wines is a small wine distributor based in the UK. For any privacy question, write to hello@cantowines.co.uk.

What we collect

When you contact us or complete one of our enquiry forms we collect the details you give us — typically your name, email address, business name and the content of your message. We also collect limited technical information such as your browser type, device and pages visited.

How we use it

We use your information to reply to enquiries, to supply wine and manage orders, to send you our lists and occasional updates where you have asked for them, and to keep the site secure and working properly. We do not sell your data.

Legal basis

We rely on your consent (for marketing and non-essential cookies), on the performance of a contract (for orders and supply), and on our legitimate interests in running and improving the business.

Sharing

We share data only with service providers who help us run the business — website hosting, email, enquiry forms and delivery partners — and where required by law. Those providers act on our instructions.

Cookies

Cookies are small files stored on your device. We use essential cookies and local storage to remember your age confirmation and your cookie choice, and to keep the site functioning. With your consent we may also use analytics cookies to understand how the site is used, in aggregate.

You can decline non-essential cookies using the banner shown on your first visit, and you can clear or block cookies at any time in your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may stop parts of the site working.

Keeping your data

We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purpose it was collected, or as long as the law requires — for example accounting records.

Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict use of your personal data, to object to processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise any of these, email us. You may also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will appear on this page with a revised date.
