At Luxe Jewelry Sales (“we,” “us,” or “our”), your privacy is as precious to us as the gold jewelry we craft. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website buygoldjewel.com. Please read this policy carefully to understand our practices regarding your personal data.

1. Information We Collect

To provide our luxury shopping experience, we collect the following types of information:

  • Personal Identification Information: Name, email address, phone number, shipping/billing address when you make a purchase or create an account.
  • Payment Information: Credit card details (processed securely through PCI-compliant gateways), PayPal email (we never store full payment details on our servers).
  • Transaction Data: Purchase history, product preferences, and order details to enhance your shopping experience.
  • Technical Data: IP address, browser type, device information, and browsing behavior collected through cookies and similar technologies.
  • Communication Data: Correspondence when you contact our concierge team at [email protected].

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your data with the same care we apply to crafting our jewelry collections:

  • To process and fulfill your orders for our 10K-14K gold and gold-plated sterling silver collections
  • To provide seamless payment processing through our secure partners (Visa, MasterCard, JCB, PayPal)
  • To offer personalized recommendations based on your browsing preferences (e.g., gold bracelets vs. gold watches)
  • To enhance website functionality and user experience
  • To communicate order confirmations, shipping updates, and respond to inquiries
  • To prevent fraud and ensure transaction security with our military-grade 256-bit SSL encryption
  • To comply with legal obligations and protect our business interests

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We value your trust and only share information when necessary:

  • Service Providers: Trusted partners who assist with payment processing (PayPal), shipping carriers, and IT services, all bound by confidentiality agreements.
  • Legal Requirements: When required by law or to protect our rights, such as fraud prevention or responding to legal processes.
  • Business Transfers: In connection with any merger or sale of company assets.

We never sell your personal information to third-party marketers.

4. International Data Transfers

As we serve customers globally (excluding certain Asian and remote regions), your data may be transferred to and processed in the United States (our headquarters at 3500 Blanchard Drive Southwest, Washington, US 20032) and other locations where our service providers operate. We ensure all transfers comply with applicable data protection laws.

5. Data Security

We implement security measures worthy of our gold jewelry collections:

  • 256-bit SSL encryption for all data transmissions (the same standard used by global banks)
  • PCI-DSS compliance for payment processing
  • Regular security audits and vulnerability testing
  • Limited employee access to personal data
  • Secure storage with industry-standard safeguards

While we implement these measures, no internet transmission is 100% secure. We encourage customers to use strong passwords and monitor account activity.

  • Access: Request a copy of your personal data we hold
  • Correction: Update inaccurate or incomplete information
