Description of the Platform and Accounts
The WineAccess Platform provides detailed information about thousands of wines. The Platform permits End Users to search for wines by different criteria, e.g., grape type, region, winery, price range, expert score, and reviewers. Entries for wines include descriptions, photos, expert tasting notes, and expert and user ratings. The Platform provides links to purchase wines from WineAccess or third-party merchants.

To access many of the features of the Platform, you must create a WineAccess account. You may not transfer your account to another person, share it with anyone, or use it to impersonate anyone. By joining, you represent and warrant that you will provide us with accurate account information (such as your real name and a valid e-mail address) and that you will update your account information if it becomes outdated. As a registered End User, you may change your member ID (your e-mail address) or password at any time. We may terminate your account if we are unable to verify or authenticate the information you provide to us. You may administer your account by clicking on Account Settings.

Seller on the Platform uses its winery permit and direct to consumer shipping permits where applicable for shipments to the following states: AK, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, FL, GA, HI, IA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, LA, MA, MI, MN, MO, MT, NC, ND, NE, NH, NM, NV, OH, OK, OR, PA, SC, TN, VA, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY.
1. For orders going to states in which Seller is licensed or has a direct to consumer shipping permit, title to and ownership of the product passes from Seller to Buyer in the state to which the product is shipped, and sales and other applicable taxes will be applied based on the requirements of the destination state. By placing an order, Buyer authorizes Seller to act on Buyer’s behalf in arranging for transportation of the product at Buyer’s direction. Alternatively, buyer may pick up the product at the Seller’s location, or make independent shipping arrangements. For any product picked up at the Seller’s location, sales tax will be applied based on that location.
2. Except for orders going to the permit states described in section (A), title to and ownership of alcoholic beverages passes from seller to buyer in the State in which the sale occurs, and buyer takes all responsibility for the product being transported from the state of sale to the buyer’s selected destination. Buyer may pick up the product at seller’s location, or make independent delivery arrangements. Sales tax will be applied based on the seller’s location. Seller makes no representation as to the legal rights of anyone to deliver or import any alcoholic beverages or other goods into any state. Buyer warrants he or she is solely responsible for the transport of the purchased products and for determining the legality and the tax/duty consequences of bringing the products to the buyer’s chosen destination.
3. Prices of our wines do not include shipping/handling charges. 'Shipping Included' language throughout the website only is valid for ground shipping in standard cardboard packaging to addresses located in the continental United States; Alaska and Hawaii are excluded. If you'd like to arrange local pickup please contact help@wineaccess.com. Temperature-controlled packaging is complimentary for orders of $300 or more.

WineAccess, Inc. Refer-a-Friend Program Terms & Conditions

As a Refer-a-Friend member (a “Referrer”), you are subject to WINEACCESS’s Terms of Use and WINEACCESS’s Privacy Policy (both available on our website), as well as the following additional Terms & Conditions for WINEACCESS’s Refer-a-Friend program:

Qualified Referral.
A Qualified Referral is defined as a purchase made at www.wineaccess.com by a person (a "Referred Customer") who arrives to our website by clicking your Refer-a-Friend program link. You are limited to one Qualified Referral for each Referred Customer; in other words, additional/repeat purchases made by a Referred Customer are not counted as additional Qualified Referrals. A qualified Referral must be a newly registered user. As person who has previously signed-up for an account on wineaccess.com or previously made a purchase does not count as a qualified referral.
Referred Customer.
The Referred Customer must be at least 21 years of age. The Referred Customer and the Referrer cannot be the same person (for example, by using a different email address). Nor can they be from the same household.
Referral Rewards.
For you to earn referral rewards as a Referrer, the Referred Customer must complete an order greater than minimum amount specified for the active referral campaign, in total value, minus all fees including taxes, discounts, shipping, returns, chargebacks, fraudulent payments, and/or other 3rd party fees.
Reward Payments.
As a Referrer, you are responsible for any and all tax liability resulting from Referral Rewards.
Eligibility.
Eligibility is limited to individuals only. WINEACCESS’s Refer-a-Friend Program cannot be used by businesses for affiliate lead generation as determined in WINEACCESS’s sole discretion. (Corporations are not people, my friend!)
No Spam.
You must comply with all up-to-date “SPAM” laws. For example, emails must be created and distributed in a personal manner and bulk email distribution is strongly discouraged. Any distribution of your referral link that could constitute unsolicited commercial email or "spam" under any applicable law or regulation is expressly prohibited and will be grounds for immediate termination of your account and exclusion from WINEACCESS’s Refer-a-Friend program.
Right to Close Accounts.
WINEACCESS reserves the right to close the account(s) of any Referrer and/or Referred Customer and to request proper payment if the Referrer and/or Referred Customer attempts to use the WINEACCESS Refer-a-Friend program in a questionable manner or breaches any of these Terms & Conditions or is in violation of any law, statute or governmental regulation.
Right to Cancel Program or Change Terms.
WINEACCESS has final say in all disputes regarding the interpretation of the terms of this program. WINEACCESS reserves the right to cancel the Refer-a-Friend Program or to change these Terms & Conditions at any time in its sole discretion, without notice. Any unclaimed referral rewards will be forfeited at that time.

Gift Subscription Program Terms & Conditions

In order to give a WineAccess subscription as a gift to a third party (“Gift Subscription”) and in order to accept and receive a Gift Subscription, you are subject to WineAccess’ Terms of Use and WineAccess’ Privacy Policy (both available on our website), as well as the following additional terms and conditions for the WineAccess Gift Subscription program:

Eligibility.
Only individuals who are United States residents and 21 years of age or older may purchase or receive a Gift Subscription. By purchasing a Gift Subscription, the individual purchasing the Gift Subscription (the “Gifter”) represents and warrants that (i) the Gifter is 21 years of age or older, (ii) the recipient of the Gift Subscription (the “Giftee”) is 21 years of age or older, and (iii) the Giftee does not reside in Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Hawaii, Michigan, Mississippi, or Utah (“Excluded Locations”). WineAccess reserves the right to update the Excluded Locations in its sole discretion and at any time. Addresses within the Excluded Locations are prohibited from receiving a Gift Subscription wine shipment.
Purchasing a Gift Subscription.
The Gifter must pay for the full Gift Subscription at the time of purchase using a valid form of payment. Gift Subscriptions cannot be purchased with a gift card, store credit, wire transfer or check. The Gifter must provide the name, shipping address, and email address of the Giftee. Any errors in the Giftee’s information may prevent WineAccess from delivering the Gift Subscription. The wine club options, including specific wines, available as a Gift Subscription may change from time to time in WineAccess’ sole discretion. WineAccess does not represent or warrant that particular wines will be available at the time of shipping. Shipping within the continental United States and taxes are included in the advertised cost of the Gift Subscription. Discount codes cannot be applied to the purchase of a Gift Subscription.
Receiving a Gift Subscription.
Once the Gift Subscription has been purchased, WineAccess will contact the Giftee at the email address provided by the Gifter to inform the Giftee of the Gift Subscription. The Giftee must affirmatively accept the Gift Subscription, create a free account with WineAccess, be eligible for the Gift Subscription, and agree to these Gift Subscription terms and conditions within six (6) months of the purchase date of the Gift Subscription in order to activate the Gift Subscription. The frequency, type and quantity of bottles of wine that the Giftee receives will be determined in accordance with the type of wine club purchased by the Gifter. The Giftee will not be able to modify the Gift Subscription, other than as provided for in these terms and conditions. The Giftee cannot receive the value of the Gift Subscription in the form of cash, check, gift card, or other form of payment, other than as provided for in these terms and conditions. Gift Subscriptions are not reloadable or refundable, except as expressly provided in these terms and conditions or as required by law.

If a wine club is advertised as including a discount on other WineAccess purchases during the wine club subscription period, the Giftee will receive such discount during the Gift Subscription period. Such discount will expire when the last order in the applicable Gift Subscription is shipped. If the Giftee is already a subscriber to the same wine club with WineAccess that is gifted, the Gift Subscription may be applied to the existing wine club (in which case the Giftee will not be charged for wine club shipments during the term of the Gift Subscription). Sign in to existing WineAccess account to apply Gift Subscription.

At any point in the Gift Subscription, the Giftee can suspend the Gift Subscription for up to six (6) months (one time only) or gift the remainder of the Gift Subscription to another eligible individual (who would be subject to these same terms and conditions). WineAccess does not collect any payment information from the Giftee in order to activate or ship the Gift Subscription.

Shortly before each wine club shipment, WineAccess will contact the Giftee via email to confirm the Giftee’s shipping address is correct and give a time estimate as to when the shipment will be delivered. The Giftee should confirm the information is correct and that an individual who is 21 years or older will be available to accept the shipment and sign for delivery. A valid government-issued ID may be required upon delivery. WineAccess is not responsible for inability to deliver shipments where the correct address is not provided or the wine is not deliverable. Gift Subscriptions cannot be shipped to a PO Box.
Refunds, Price Differences and Incomplete Subscriptions.
If the Giftee does not affirmatively accept the Gift Subscription, fails to create an account, and/or fails to agree to these terms and conditions within six (6) months of purchase of the Gift Subscription, WineAccess may cancel the Gift Subscription and issue a full refund to the Gifter using the payment method used to pay for the Gift Subscription or, if the payment method on file becomes invalid due to an expired credit card or any other reason, in the form of a WineAccess gift card.

The cost of each Gift Subscription includes estimated taxes, but the actual taxes are determined state by state at the time of shipment. Where the estimated taxes exceed the actual taxes, WineAccess will provide the difference to the Giftee in the form of a WineAccess gift card at the end of the Gift Subscription. In certain cases the pricing of wines in a Gift Subscription may vary from what was paid by the Gifter. If the retail value of the full Gift Subscription deviates materially from the price paid by the Gifter, then we may, in our sole discretion, provide the difference to the Giftee in the form of a WineAccess gift card at the end of the Gift Subscription.

If the Giftee moves to a state where a Gift Subscription cannot be shipped or if WineAccess can no longer ship to the Giftee at their location due to a change in law or regulations, the Giftee may choose to (i) suspend the Gift Subscription for up to six (6) months one time, (ii) gift the remaining Gift Subscription to another eligible individual, or (iii) receive a WineAccess gift card for the remaining value of the Gift Subscription. Please contact WineAccess customer service at club@wineaccess.com if this this situation applies to you.

If at any time a shipment is returned as undeliverable and the Giftee does not respond to WineAccess’ request for an updated address or if the Giftee provides an updated address that is also undeliverable, WineAccess may email a WineAccess gift card to the Giftee for the remaining value of the Gift Subscription.

If the Giftee voluntarily forfeits all or the remainder of a Gift Subscription, WineAccess may, but will have no obligation to, provide the remaining value to the Gifter by crediting the payment method used to pay for the Gift Subscription or, if the payment method on file becomes invalid due to an expired credit card or any other reason, provide the balance to the Gifter in the form of a WineAccess gift card. In that case, the Giftee will forfeit all remaining value in the Gift Subscription and will not receive any compensation for the difference.

WineAccess gift cards are subject to the Gift Card terms and conditions available here
Right to Cancel Program or Change Terms.
WineAccess has final say in all disputes regarding the interpretation of the terms of the Gift Subscription program. WineAccess reserves the right to cancel the Gift Subscription program or to change these terms and conditions at any time in its sole discretion, without notice.
Transfer of Rights.
WineAccess’ rights and obligations under the Gift Subscription program may be assigned or transferred by WineAccess to any other related or unrelated entity at any time, and further performance under the Gift Subscription program shall be the responsibility of that entity.
Limitations of Liability.
WineAccess is not responsible for lost, interrupted, inaccessible or unavailable networks, servers, internet service providers, websites, or other connections; or for miscommunications, failed, jumbled, scrambled, delayed, or misdirected computer or telephone transmissions; or for any technical malfunctions, failures, or difficulties, or other errors of any kind or nature; or for the incorrect or inaccurate capture of information, or the failure to capture any information. WineAccess’ liability to the Gifter or the Giftee shall not exceed the total value of the Gift Subscription purchased by the Gifter.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, PARTICIPANTS IN THE GIFT SUBSCRIPTION PROGRAM HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO CLAIM PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES AND ANY OTHER DAMAGES, OTHER THAN FOR ACTUAL OUT-OF-POCKET EXPENSES, AND ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO HAVE DAMAGES MULTIPLIED OR OTHERWISE INCREASED. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
Force Majeure.
If, for any reason, the Gift Subscription program or an individual Gift Subscription is not capable of being delivered as planned, including, due to errors of any kind or nature, infection by computer virus, bugs, tampering, unauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failures, or any other causes beyond the control of WineAccess which corrupt or affect the administration, security, fairness, integrity or proper conduct of the Gift Subscription program, WineAccess reserves the right in its sole discretion to cancel, terminate, modify, or suspend the Gift Subscription program or an individual Gift Subscription or otherwise respond to the circumstances as WineAccess deems appropriate. In the event WineAccess is prevented from continuing with the Gift Subscription program as contemplated herein by any event beyond its control, including but not limited to fire, flood, natural or man-made epidemic of health of other means, earthquake, explosion, labor dispute or strike, act of God or public enemy, satellite or equipment failure, riot or civil disturbance, terrorist threat or activity, war (declared or undeclared) or any federal state or local government law, order, or regulation, public health crisis, order of any court or jurisdiction, or other cause not reasonably within WineAccess’s control (each a “Force Majeure” event or occurrence), WineAccess have the right to modify, suspend, or terminate the Gift Subscription program, in whole or in part.
Miscellaneous.
Any attempt by any person to undermine the legitimate operation of the Gift Subscription program may be a violation of criminal and civil law, and, should such an attempt be made, WineAccess reserves the right to seek damages from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law. If any part of these Gift Subscription terms and conditions is deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Gift Subscription terms and conditions and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions of the Gift Subscription terms and conditions. Any delay or failure by us in exercising, or any waiver by us of, our rights under or in connection with these Gift Subscription terms and conditions will not limit or restrict the future exercise or enforceability of those rights. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED.
