Information Sharing and Disclosure
Aggregate Information (non-personally identifiable)

We share aggregated demographic information about our user base with advertisers. This information does not identify individual users.

We do not link aggregate user data with personally identifiable information.

External Site Links
This site also contains links to other sites. Unfortunately Shiraz Jewels, LLC. is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such Web sites.

Security
Shiraz Jewels, LLC takes your security seriously and takes all necessary steps to protect your information. We continue to evaluate and implement enhancements in security technology and practices.

All of the personal data we receive is private and is kept confidential. We have physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect personal information about you. Shiraz Jewels, LLC. limits access to personal information about you to employees who we believe reasonably need to come into contact with that information to provide products or services to you or in order to do their jobs. Shiraz Jewels, LLC has implemented a company-wide education and training program about security that is required of every employee.

Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
We use Versign's SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption when transmitting certain kinds of information, such as financial services information or payment information. Our secure server software (SSL) is the industry standard and among the best software available today for secure commerce transactions. It encrypts all of your personal information including credit card number, name, and address, so that it cannot be read as the information travels over the Internet. An icon resembling a padlock is displayed on the bottom of most browsers window during SSL transactions that involve credit cards and other forms of payment. In addition, "https" replaces "http" in the browser address bar when you are in our secure area. The "s" in https means you are in a secure part of our site. Any time we ask you for a credit card number on ShirazJewels.com for payment or for verification purposes, it will be SSL encrypted. The information you provide will be stored securely on our servers. Once you choose to store or enter your credit card number on ShirazJewels.com, it will not be displayed back to you in its entirety when you retrieve or edit it in the future. Instead of the entire number, you will only see asterisks and either the first four digits or the last four digits of your number.

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

If you have any questions about security on our Web site, you can email us at security@shirazjewels.com
