It also describes the choices available to you regarding our use of your Personal Information and how you can access and update it. This Policy is a legally binding agreement between you (“User”, “you” or “your”) and this Website operator (“Operator”, “we”, “us” or “our”). If you are entering into this agreement on behalf of a business or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind such entity to this agreement, in which case the terms “User”, “you” or “your” shall refer to such entity.

By accessing and using the Website and Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the terms of this Policy.

Collection of information Our top priority is customer data security and, as such, we exercise the no logs policy. We may process only minimal user data, only as much as it is absolutely necessary to maintain the Website and Services. Information collected automatically is used only to identify potential cases of abuse and establish statistical information regarding the usage and traffic of the Website and Services. This statistical information is not otherwise aggregated in such a way that would identify any particular user of the system.

We encourage parents and legal guardians to monitor their children’s Internet usage and to help enforce this Policy by instructing their children never to provide Personal Information through the Website and Services without their permission. We also ask that all parents and legal guardians overseeing the care of children take the necessary precautions to ensure that their children are instructed to never give out Personal Information when online without their permission. Use and processing of collected information We act as a data controller and a data processor when handling Personal Information, unless we have entered into a data processing agreement with you in which case you would be the data controller and we would be the data processor. Our role may also differ depending on the specific situation involving Personal Information. We act in the capacity of a data controller when we ask you to submit your Personal Information that is necessary to ensure your access and use of the Website and Services. In such instances, we are a data controller because we determine the purposes and means of the processing of Personal Information. We act in the capacity of a data processor in situations when you submit Personal Information through the Website and Services. We do not own, control, or make decisions about the submitted Personal Information, and such Personal Information is processed only in accordance with your instructions. In such instances, the User providing Personal Information acts as a data controller. In order to make the Website and Services available to you, or to meet a legal obligation, we may need to collect and use certain Personal Information. If you do not provide the information that we request, we may not be able to provide you with the requested products or services. Any of the information we collect from you may be used for the following purposes: Create and manage user accounts Send product and service updates Respond to inquiries and offer support Enforce terms and conditions and policies Protect from abuse and malicious users Respond to legal requests and prevent harm Run and operate the Website and Services Processing your Personal Information depends on how you interact with the Website and Services, where you are located in the world and if one of the following applies: (i) you have given your consent for one or more specific purposes; (ii) provision of information is necessary for the performance of an agreement with you and/or for any pre-contractual obligations thereof; (iii) processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which you are subject; (iv) processing is related to a task that is carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in us; (v) processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party. We may also combine or aggregate some of your Personal Information in order to better serve you and to improve and update our Website and Services. Note that under some legislations we may be allowed to process information until you object to such processing by opting out, without having to rely on consent or any other of the legal bases. In any case, we will be happy to clarify the specific legal basis that applies to the processing, and in particular whether the provision of Personal Information is a statutory or contractual requirement, or a requirement necessary to enter into a contract. Managing information You are able to delete certain Personal Information we have about you. The Personal Information you can delete may change as the Website and Services change. When you delete Personal Information, however, we may maintain a copy of the unrevised Personal Information in our records for the duration necessary to comply with our obligations to our affiliates and partners, and for the purposes described below. If you would like to delete your Personal Information or permanently delete your account, you can do so by contacting us. Our website may contain links to other websites of interest.

Retention of information We will retain and use your Personal Information for the period necessary to comply with our legal obligations, as long as your user account remains active, to enforce our agreements, resolve disputes, and unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. We may use any aggregated data derived from or incorporating your Personal Information after you update or delete it, but not in a manner that would identify you personally. Once the retention period expires, Personal Information shall be deleted. Therefore, the right to access, the right to erasure, the right to rectification, and the right to data portability cannot be enforced after the expiration of the retention period. Do Not Track signals Some browsers incorporate a Do Not Track feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Tracking is not the same as using or collecting information in connection with a website. For these purposes, tracking refers to collecting personally identifiable information from consumers who use or visit a website or online service as they move across different websites over time. How browsers communicate the Do Not Track signal is not yet uniform. As a result, the Website and Services are not yet set up to interpret or respond to Do Not Track signals communicated by your browser.

Social media features Our Website and Services may include social media features, such as the Facebook and Twitter buttons, Share This buttons, etc (collectively, “Social Media Features”). These Social Media Features may collect your IP address, what page you are visiting on our Website and Services, and may set a cookie to enable Social Media Features to function properly. Social Media Features are hosted either by their respective providers or directly on our Website and Services. Your interactions with these Social Media Features are governed by the privacy policy of their respective providers.

In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure, we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online through restricting access to personal information; maintaining technology products to prevent unauthorized computer access and securely destroying your personal information when it's no longer needed for our record retention purposes. Push notifications We offer push notifications to which you may also voluntarily subscribe at any time. To make sure push notifications reach the correct devices, we rely on a device token unique to your device which is issued by the operating system of your device. While it is possible to access a list of device tokens, they will not reveal your identity, your unique device ID, or your contact information to us. We will maintain the information sent via e-mail in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. If, at any time, you wish to stop receiving push notifications, simply adjust your device settings accordingly. Information security We secure information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards in an effort to protect against unauthorized access, use, modification, and disclosure of Personal Information in our control and custody. However, no data transmission over the Internet or wireless network can be guaranteed. Therefore, while we strive to protect your Personal Information, you acknowledge that (i) there are security and privacy limitations of the Internet which are beyond our control; (ii) the security, integrity, and privacy of any and all information and data exchanged between you and the Website and Services cannot be guaranteed; and (iii) any such information and data may be viewed or tampered with in transit by a third party, despite best efforts. As the security of Personal Information depends in part on the security of the device you use to communicate with us and the security you use to protect your credentials, please take appropriate measures to protect this information.

In the event of a data breach, we will make reasonable efforts to notify affected individuals if we believe that there is a reasonable risk of harm to the User as a result of the breach or if notice is otherwise required by law. When we do, we will post a notice on the Website, send you an email, get in touch with you over the phone.

PRODUCT CARES We strongly encourage you to treat your beloved La Joie pieces to a yearly spa. Having your jewellery professionally cleaned will ensure it retains its lustre and beauty for many years to come. Our La Joie professional spa will include cleaning and checking the gem, polishing of the gold, tightening of prongs and checking the integrity of the piece. Doing this yearly not only ensures a good-looking piece but also keeps your gems safe, snug and secure. Depending on your piece, the La Joie Spa treatment ranges from $100 - $300. Get in touch with us to find out more. GEMSTONES CARE Most of our pieces will feature coloured gemstones, this will require more care and attention. Please refrain from using an ultra-sonic jewellery cleaner, this method can be abrasive on the gemstones and loosen the prongs. If you are doing any activities that might cause damage to the piece, such as sports, cooking or gardening, it would be best to keep your beloved piece in a safe place. Avoid exposing your pieces to hand lotion, creams, perfume and cleaning products. It is best practice to allow your moisturizers and creams to be fully absorbed into your skin before adorning your jewellery. For more porous and softer materials such as emeralds and pearls please send them to us for professional cleaning. These gems require special attention and most cleaning products will be too harsh on them. Do not use any form of heat on your piece. Even the heat from a hair dryer might affect the more delicate gems. When storing your jewellery, make sure that they are not touching to avoid the possibility of them scratching. Keep your softer gems such as emeralds and pearls separately to your harder gems like diamonds. You may use our La Joie cleaning cloth or a micro-fibre cloth to wipe your pieces as part of your regular maintenance. If your piece starts looking a little dull, make a cleaning solution with some gentle hand soap or mild dish soap and warm water. Use a soft bristled toothbrush to gently clean the gem and its mounting. You may also buy jewellery cleaning liquid to use, likewise you would still need to lightly brush your piece. Always remember to rinse your pieces off with clean water afterwards. The soft bristles will help get into the small crevices and dimples that might have collected some dirt and grime. If you are worried about damaging your piece, come into the boutique for us to help you get your beloved piece professionally cleaned. The most important thing is for you to enjoy wearing your piece of jewellery, leave the maintenance and worry to us! ENGRAVING Whether you buy from one of our collections or choose to custom make, engraving is a great way to make your piece even more personal.
