4- Security:
We have in place appropriate technical and security measures to prevent unauthorized or unlawful access to or accidental loss of or destruction or damage to your information. When we collect data through the Site, we collect your personal details on a secure server. We use firewalls on our servers. When we collect payment card details electronically, we use encryption by using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) coding. Whilst we are unable to guarantee 100% security, this makes it hard for a hacker to decrypt your details. You are strongly recommended not to send full credit or debit card details in unencrypted electronic communications with us. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in connection with the collection and disclosure of your information. Our security procedures mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we disclose personal information to you. You are responsible for protecting against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer.
5- Log Information:
Every time you visit Sadia’s Jewelry websites, information is sent from your browser to our server log files, where it will be saved. The information transferred includes the time and date of visit to our site, which pages were viewed, IP address, URL of the site that referred you to Sadia’s Jewelry, how much information has been stored, and which browser you have been using.
Once we have all this information, all IP addresses are deleted or anonymized. Anonymization means that your IP address is changed in such a way that it either cannot be linked with the original user or can only be linked through extensive research.
The anonymous information stored in this log file is then used to improve the shopping experience on our website by making our navigation more user-friendly, finding errors quickly, and directing our server’s capacity to where it is needed most. For example, this information allows us to work out our busiest times and plan enough server power for those times to keep our site running as quickly as possible.
6- Cookies:
It is not necessary to accept cookies to visit our website. However, if you would like to place an order or add an item to your shopping basket, you will need to set your browser to accept cookies so you can use the shopping basket and checkout functions.
What are Cookies?
Cookies and flash cookies are small files that are saved on your data carrier which store specific information about your preferred settings and any other data that our system needs when interacting with your browser. Cookies help us to tailor our website to suit you and to reflect your tastes and your browsing habits. They also allow us to save any information you have entered so you don’t have to enter it all again the next time you visit.
Cookies enable our system to recognize that you’ve visited our website before and to remember which settings (like language preference) and products you prefer. Temporary/permanent cookies have a lifespan, after which they will be automatically deleted. Cookies allow us to collect and analyze data to come up with strategies to improve our website. This makes our website easier for our customers to use and helps us to provide you with personal recommendations of products you may like. We aim to offer you a fun, easy shopping experience on our website that is tailored to your tastes.
What kind of cookies does Sadia’s Jewelry use?
We may use any of the following types of cookies on our website:
- Session cookies – These cookies are deleted at the end of your browser session and are used to enable you to use our site and its features e.g., “Wishlist” and “Shopping Cart”.
- Analytics cookies- These cookies enable us to analyze how you are using our site and come up with strategies to make your shopping experience even better.
- Customer preference cookies- We use these cookies to remember your product and account preferences to offer you an even more personalized shopping experience. To be able to do this, though, these cookies may remain on your computer even after you have quit the browser.
- Customer targeting and advertising cookies- We use these cookies to show you ads that are relevant to you based on your preferences. These cookies also enable us to control the number of times you view an ad and gauge the efficacy of our marketing campaigns.
What kind of information is stored in cookies?
The cookies we use are never used to store any personal information. Therefore, our cookies cannot be traced back to an individual user. Once a cookie is activated, it is given an ID number, which is solely used for internal reference and cannot be used to identify the user or access any personal information, such as your name or IP address. The anonymized information we receive from the cookies allows us to assess which pages of our site are visited the most and see which products are most popular etc.
What is on-site targeting?
We gather the information that could be useful in tailoring our adverts and online offers to our customers. This information is not used to identify you as a user; it is solely used for the optimization of our website. Information collected by our cookies is not stored with our customer’s personal information or order information, it is only used to provide our users with adverts and/or notifications of offers and services that are suited to their individual tastes, using click stream analysis (e.g. adverts for Turkish Rings if a customer has been browsing our Rings and Turkish jewelry collection). Our goal is to provide you with a shopping experience suited to your tastes and shopping preferences.
Does Sadia’s Jewelry use third-party cookies?
Cookies from specific business partners are allowed to tailor their adverts to your tastes and browsing habits, so cookies from some of our partners may be stored on your computer when you visit our site. These cookies are temporary/permanent cookies, which will be automatically deleted from your computer at the end of their lifespan (14 days to 2 years). As with our cookies, these third-party cookies do not collect any personal information. The data stored is collected at certain times, allowing these companies to see which products have been viewed most frequently but this is done completely anonymously under randomly designated user ID numbers. Therefore, this data will never be pooled with any personal information you have given to us. Third-party cookies have the sole purpose of allowing our partners to advertise products that may interest you.
Re-targeting
Our website uses retargeting, which allows us to make our online offer more interesting for you. Retargeting technology means we can advertise recently viewed and related products on our partners’ websites, meaning our adverts, even on other companies’ sites, are relevant to what you would like to see. We do this by analyzing user behavior from data collected by our cookies. Even this kind of information is anonymous, with no personal information being stored and no user profiles.
How can I prevent cookies from being stored on my computer?
You can change the settings in your browser to ask for your permission every time a cookie tries to access your computer. If you would like to accept our cookies but block our partners’ cookies, you can set your browser to block third-party cookies. Usually, your browser’s help section will provide information on how to change your cookie settings. We recommend only changing the browser setting for your profile on shared computers.
