We keep basic daily page-view totals on the winery's own server to understand which public pages are used. These totals contain only the date, page path, and number of views, without analytics cookies, visitor IDs, IP addresses, or browsing histories. Request information is processed briefly for abuse prevention; ordinary hosting security logs are separate from these totals. You can turn off analytics using Privacy settings in the footer. A previous choice to decline analytics is respected.
Google Analytics loads automatically on public pages unless you choose Basic counts only or Turn off analytics in Privacy settings. It measures public page visits, menu and booking-link clicks, contact-link clicks, and successful inquiry submissions. Inquiry names, contact details, messages, and requested stay dates are not included in these analytics events. Google processes the usage and device information to provide analytics reports for the winery. Analytics cookies are disabled by default for visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Quebec until they choose Allow Google Analytics. In those regions, Google may receive limited measurements without analytics cookies. Advertising storage, advertising personalization and Google Signals are not enabled by this website. You can change your choice using Privacy settings in the footer. Your privacy choice is saved separately in your browser. Google Analytics cookies, when enabled, distinguish browsers and sessions. Essential cart functionality uses separate storage. Shopify checkout has its own privacy and cookie controls.
