Use of your Data
The Competition Grape Vine will never sell your data or give it to anyone not directly connected with Grape Vine except for administrative purposes necessary for the your entry into a competition.
If you enter a competition on the website or blog, your information is stored for one month after the competition closes. This is in case the winner does not respond or declines the prize, to facilitate redrawing. After this period, your information is destroyed.
As for cookies..... well. this blog is hosted by Google and I've searched high and low for some way of finding out what cookies are used and for what purpose, and what I can do about it - but I've drawn a blank. So all I can say is that there are no cookies used for my own purpose, and that the blog is presumably covered by a blanket Privacy Policy of Google's.
If anyone has any advice or hints about cookies it would be greatly appreciated!
