Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal data and how we will treat it.

By using www.augustinejewels.com (“our site”) or submitting information to us through or in connection with our site, you signify your consent to our collection, use and disclosure of your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, you must not use our site or submit information to us through or in connection with our site.

NEW GDPR UPDATE (THE GENERAL PROTECTION REGULATION)

 Augustine Jewels reviews your personal data to ensure they meet the new GDPR (The General Protection Regulation) requirements that come into force 25th May 2018. 

HOW GDPR PROTECTS YOU:

  • Your personal data is better protected
  • You have more control and easier access to the personal information we hold about you, if you wish to check, change it or have it removed
  • You can chose how you wish to be contacted, for example by e-mail or phone
  • You can change your mind and you can update your choices at anytime

The new Law states that we can use your personal data only if we have one or more of these reasons:

  • When you consent to it, or
  • To fulfil a contract we have with you, or
  • When it is our legal duty, or
  • When it is in our legitimate interest (A legitimate interest is when we have a business or commercial reason to use information.  If we rely on our legitimate interest, we will tell you what that is).

 

ACCESSING AND AMENDING YOUR DATA

 

You have a right to access a copy of the Data, which we hold about you. If you would like to do this, please email us at info@augustinejewels.com and the subject matter in the email, as per the terms of GDPR, we will provide the Data within thirty (30) days of receipt of your written request.  This is a free of charge service.

You may need to modify or update your Data if your circumstances change. Additional Data as to your marketing preferences may also be stored and you may change this at any time.

You are able to make amendments, or withdraw your consent for use, by calling us or by contacting us via email at info@augustinejewels.com.

If you withdraw your consent to any or all use of your personal Data, depending upon the nature of your request, we may not be able to provide or continue providing our products and services to you, or administer any contractual relationship already in place. You understand and agree that in such instances where we require your personal Data to fulfil a contractual obligation to you and you withdraw your consent to collect, use or disclose the relevant personal Data for those purposes, we cannot be held liable for breach of that agreement. Our legal rights and remedies in such event are expressly reserved.

INTERACTIVE SERVICES

We may from time to time provide interactive services on our site, including, without limitation:

 (interactive services).

Where we do provide any interactive service, we will provide clear information to you about the kind of service offered, if it is moderated and what form of moderation is used (including whether it is human or technical).

We will do our best to assess any possible risks for users (and in particular, for children) from third parties when they use any interactive service provided on our site, and we will decide in each case whether it is appropriate to use moderation of the relevant service (including what kind of moderation to use) in the light of those risks. However, we are under no obligation to oversee, monitor or moderate any interactive service we provide on our site, and we expressly exclude our liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of any interactive service by a user in contravention of our content standards, whether the service is moderated or not.

The use of any of our interactive services by a minor is subject to the consent of their parent or guardian. We advise parents who permit their children to use an interactive service that it is important that they communicate with their children about their safety online, as moderation is not foolproof. Minors who are using any interactive service should be made aware of the potential risks to them.

Where we do moderate an interactive service, we will normally provide you with a means of contacting the moderator, should a concern or difficulty arise.
