Privacy Statement
DreamStonesJewelry is committed to safeguarding your privacy online. I will never disclose, sell, rent or lease any information to any third party without your express permission unless required to do so by law.
DreamStonesJewelry does not collect any personally identifiable information except when knowingly provided by an individual during the order process. The following discloses my information gathering and dissemination practices.
Server Logs
Like most web sites, DreamStonesJewelry keeps server logs of accesses to the DreamStonesJewelry website. These logs are used to determine what sections of the site are being accessed so that I can improve the site. The server logs that I use do not contain any personally identifiable information such as your name or email address.
Cookies
Cookies are bits of information that are stored on your computer by your browser. DreamStonesJewelry.com does not set any cookies. However, links to external pages or other web sites may or may not set cookies. If information is collected by another web site, none of that information is ever requested by or shared with DreamStonesJewelry.
Personal information
DreamStonesJewelry does not collect personal information on consumers without their consent. In cases when such information is required in order to complete a sale, you are prompted to provide the minimum amount of information necessary.
When you Purchase Items
Personal information, such as your name, credit card number(s) and address/phone #, is never stored online, temporary storage is handled off-line and is deleted after the minimum period required by credit card processors.
When paying for a purchase by credit card, I am required, for credit verification and fraud protection reasons, to prompt you for your name, billing address, credit card number and expiration date, phone number and e-mail address. DreamStonesJewelry shares your personal information only with my credit card processor so that I may validate your credit and protect myself against fraud. This information is encrypted to protect your privacy. I encourage you to speak with your credit card issuer to find out what additional policies they have in place to protect your personal information.
In cases where DreamStonesJewelry has been the victim of credit card fraud, information will be shared with the appropriate law enforcement authorities and legal action will be pursued.
When paying by cash, check or money order, no personally identifiable information is required except a name and shipping address and that information is only retained for shipping and accounting purposes and is not shared with any third party.
Update List
You may request to be placed on my Update List and be notified when new jewelry items become available by providing your email address. Submitting your email address for notification is completely voluntary and is offered as a service to you. If you choose to provide your email address, I will send periodic updates, usually three to four times a year. This information is never shared with any third party and is only used by DreamStonesJewelry to provide update, sale or preview notices. Additionally, I use special software to automatically remove duplicate addresses, so you will never receive more than one notice, unless you have signed up using more than one address.
If you wish to be removed from this preview list, you may do so at any time by sending a blank email to customersupport@dreamstonesjewelry.com with "remove" in the subject line.
Shipping
In the course of shipping your order, I will share your name and shipping address with an intermediary such as Federal Express, UPS or the U. S. postal service.
