Privacy policy

This site compares wine tours across Sonoma Valley, Healdsburg and the surrounding appellations. There is nothing to sign up for, no personal profile, and no checkout on our end. Reading a tour page here leaves no trail tied to you.

What this site collects

The only measurement here is aggregate: which pages were opened, roughly where in the world the visit came from, what type of device, and which listing links were clicked. That click data matters most, because it shows whether a page genuinely helped someone choose between the open-air trolley day out of Sonoma Plaza and an e-bike ride between Dry Creek wineries, or between a half-day join-in tasting tour and a private full-day itinerary. It says nothing about who you are. Names, email addresses and payment details are never stored, because nothing on this site asks for them.

Third-party scripts

The analytics tool sets its own cookies. Where a page embeds a map, it loads from the map provider as the page renders, and that provider may set cookies under its own privacy policy rather than this one.

Clicking a tour listing, whether it is the Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley day or a boutique Healdsburg walking tour, takes you to the live booking page. From that point the operator's own systems take over and set their own cookies, which belong to the platform and its privacy policy, not to this site. The same applies to any winery or operator site reached through a link here. The disclosure page explains who pays what and when.

What never happens

• Sell, trade or rent visitor data to anyone.
• Run ad-network code, tracking pixels or third-party scripts that follow you between sites.
• Ask for an email address. No newsletter exists here and no mailing list is kept.
• Handle your payment, hold a tasting reservation or process a booking of any kind. When you reserve a trolley seat or a bike tour, the transaction runs on the operator's own system, under their terms.
• Offer a contact form of any kind. The contact page is a plain mailto address, so any message you send travels through your own email provider and never through a server of ours.

Hosting

The site is served through Cloudflare, which maintains standard server logs containing IP addresses to block abuse and keep the pages secure. We do not mine those logs to build profiles of readers or link browsing habits to individuals.

Your choices

A script blocker, tracking protection or a private window neutralises the analytics here, and no page depends on it. Every page, from the full-day wine country comparisons to the Segway tour write-up, renders with JavaScript switched off. Prefer to skip this site entirely? The disclosure page names the operators, including Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley and Sonoma Wine Rides, so you can book with them directly without passing through here at all.
