Privacy Policy

At Casks of Significance, we value the moments you choose to mark with us. Your trust is part of that story. This policy explains how we handle your personal information – with care, transparency, and respect. We keep it simple, because your time matters.

Last Updated: January 12, 2026

We may update this policy as our journey evolves. We'll let you know of any changes that affect you.

What We Collect

We gather only what helps us craft your experience.

- Personal Details: Your name, email, address, and phone number when you inquire, purchase, or create an account.
- Your Story: Details about your milestone – like a birth date or wedding anniversary – to personalise your cask.
- Payment Information: Securely processed through trusted partners; we don't store card details ourselves.
- App and Site Usage: Through our CoS app and website, we note how you interact – visits, preferences, and samples requested – to make your journey smoother.
- Communications: Notes from our conversations, whether by email, chat, or visits to Scotland.

We collect this when you share it directly, or automatically through cookies and similar tools that help us understand your path.

How We Use It

Your information helps us build something lasting.

- To fulfil your order: Crafting, storing, and maturing your cask in Scotland.
- To stay connected: Updates on your cask's progress, like its deepening character over time.
- To improve our service: Learning what resonates, so we can guide others better.
- For legal reasons: Like taxes, shipping, or safety in our warehouse.

We use it thoughtfully – never for anything beyond marking what matters to you.

Who We Share With

Your story stays private, shared only when needed.

- Partners in Craft: Distilleries, warehouses, and shippers in Scotland who help mature and deliver your cask.
- Service Providers: Tools for payments, emails, and analytics – all bound by strict privacy agreements.
- Legal Requirements: If required by law, or to protect our shared interests.

We never sell your data. It's yours, not a commodity.

Your Choices and Rights

You guide this journey.

- Access or update your details anytime through your account or by reaching us.
- Opt out of updates – though we'll miss sharing your cask's story.
- Request deletion, where possible, while respecting legal needs.
- For EU/UK residents, rights under GDPR apply: access, rectification, erasure, and more.

Security

We protect your information like a cask in maturation – secure and watched over.

- Encrypted connections and storage.
- Access limited to those who need it.
- Regular checks to keep things safe.

If something goes wrong, we'll tell you promptly and make it right.

Cookies and Tracking

Our site uses cookies to remember your preferences and enhance your visit. You can manage them in your browser settings. Some are essential; others help us learn without identifying you personally.

International Transfers

Your data may travel to Scotland or beyond, always under protections like standard contractual clauses.

Retention

We hold your information as long as your cask matures with us – or until you ask us to let go. After that, we keep basics for records, then delete.

Children

Our service is for those 18 and over. We don't knowingly collect data from younger ones.
