This notice describes our privacy policy. By visiting our website, you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Notice.

The information we gather from our customers helps us personalise and continually improve your shopping experience with glitz jewellers. The types of information we gather are:

Information you give us

We receive and store any information you enter on our website or give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our features. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, fulfilling orders, customising future shopping for you, improving our store features, and communication with you. You provide most such information when you search, buy, order, post reviews, or other methods of communication via our website or email. As a result of those actions, you might supply us with such information as your name, address, and phone numbers, and credit card information.

Automatic information

We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with our website. For example, like many web sites, we sometimes use "cookies", and we obtain certain types of information when your web browser accesses our website. This enables our systems to recognise your browser and to provide features such as storage of items in your Shopping Cart between visits.

For security purposes we sometimes collect and analyse the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet, and to our website. This is done for your protection for tracking purposes in the unfortunate event that someone gains access to your personal or financial information and opens an account, or makes purchases under your name.

Email communications

To help us make emails more productive to improve service and your shopping experience, we sometimes send you newsletters of our services and products, notifications of changes to our policies, and order confirmations. If you do not want to receive e-mail from us, other than order notifications and receipts, please adjust your "Subscription" preferences by logging into your account.

We respect your privacy and appreciate your business. At no time do we ever provide your account, contact or payment information to any third party vendor, associate or service provider unless absolutely necessary in order to complete your transaction and order.

Security

We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you provide to us for purchasing of our products or services. We reveal only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing. It is important for you to protect against unauthorised access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer by clicking the "log off" link located in the side menu.

We take the security of our customers' personal details very seriously. We use proven technology and physical security measures to ensure the highest level of protection. Any information that you send to us is encoded with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology. This sophisticated encryption process ensures that prying eyes are unable to decode your personal data when it travels from your computer to ours, and from our computer to the bank's. You can tell when your browser is in secure mode in the checkout by looking for the padlock icon in the bottom corner of your browser window. We use sophisticated protection technology to ensure that your personal details remain safe.

Which information can I access?

Glitz jewellers gives you access to a broad range of information about your account and your interactions with us for the limited purpose of viewing and, in certain cases, updating that information.

Conditions of use, notices, and revisions

If you choose to visit our website, your visit and any dispute over privacy is subject to this notice and our Conditions of use, including limitations on damages, arbitration of disputes, and application of the law of the state of Victoria. If you have any concern about privacy of your personal information as used and collected within our website, please send us a thorough description by clicking on the contact us and we will try to resolve it.

Our business changes constantly, and our Privacy notice and the Conditions of use will change also. We may email periodic reminders of our notices and conditions, unless you have instructed us not to, but you should check our website frequently to see recent changes. Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy notice applies to all information that we have about you and your account. We stand behind the promises we make, however, and will never materially change our policies and practices to make them less protective of customer information collected in the past without the consent of affected customers.

Privacy

We are committed to keeping your personal information private and secure. When you make a purchase from our site, you provide your name, email address, credit card information, address, phone number and a password. We use this information to process your orders and to keep you updated on your orders. We may use statistics not linked to any individual about buying patterns, sales and other shopping information in order to improve our services.

Our secure servers protect the information using advanced encryption and firewall technology. Your personal information cannot be read as it travels to our ordering system. We use "cookies" to keep track of your current shopping session, to personalise your experience and to allow you to retrieve your shopping cart at any time.
