So whether you browse our website or use our services, it is important that you do so with the comfort of knowledge that we are not in the business of selling, renting or trading your data. Complying with Australian privacy laws and the European General Data Protection Regulation which came into effect on 25 March 2018 across the UK and Europe, in this Privacy Policy, we detail:

  • What information we collect and how we collect it
  • How we use that information

We have also detailed the limited conditions under which we may disclose it to others.

Types of data we collect:

During our interaction with clients, we need to collect the following data in order to respond to their enquiries, serve them and for invoicing purposes:

  • Customer name, address, phone and email contact

This information is collected either through forms on our website or during one-on-one interactions with clients.

Some of this information is required to be given to third parties such as but not limited to: couriers or Registered Independent Valuer’s who prepare a valuation for insurance purposes of jewellery pieces we manufacture for the client.
