Visit Information
Like many companies, RayLen Vineyards automatically tracks the usage of our website. We profile website usage by tracking the pages viewed, the frequency of visits, the browser used ISP and the region our visitors come from. This information is used to analyze trends, track use, and optimize site administration and is not tied to any identifiable person or account. For visits only your activity is anonymous.

During registration, you are required to give certain contact information (such as name, email address) and create a password. This information is used to contact you about the services on our site for which you have expressed interest (your purchase information will never include your credit card information). You may opt out of receiving communications from us either during registration, or at any other time by emailing us at wine@raylenvineyards.com, or by calling us at (336) 276-2687.

Secured Purchase Information
When a credit card order is placed on our website, your name, billing address, shipping address, telephone number, credit card number and expiration date are gathered. This is used to verify payment authorization, process your order, personalize your shopping experience, inform you of deliveries, deliver the merchandise to the proper destination and generate statistics. RayLen Vineyards takes numerous precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, the information is protected both online and offline.
For all purchase information, RayLen Vineyards uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) underneath HTTP, providing an encrypted channel and server authentication, so that all such information is transmitted through a secured server connection. Before your order is processed online, your browser will make a confirmed identification that the transmission of all data is being made between your computer and with RayLen Vineyards. While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also take several steps to protect your information offline. All of your information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a Customer Service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. If you have any questions about the security of our website, you can email us at wine@raylenvineyards.com or call us at (336) 276-2687.
