Information DiamondsRMine Collects Via The DiamondsRMine.com Site:
When you visit and browse the DiamondsRMine.com site, we may collect two different types of information about you -- information you give us, and information we collect through technology.
Information You Give Us
Orders The DiamondsRMine.com site uses an order form for customers to request products and services. This form collects your name, postal address, e-mail address, telephone number, and financial information (like credit card numbers). You may choose not to provide this information, but then you will not be able to place orders via the DiamondsRMine.com site.
Information Automatically Collected
DiamondsRMine.com uses cookies. Cookies are bits of electronic information that a website records on your computer hard drive when you visit and browse a site. We use cookies for a variety of reasons, including maintenance of your shopping cart. We also use cookies to track the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. Although most browsers automatically accept cookies, you can adjust your browser to prevent cookie distribution or to notify you whenever you are sent a cookie. This gives you the chance to decide whether or not to accept it. Without accepting a cookie, you can still access most of the content at DiamondsRMine.com, though you cannot complete a purchase, and some aspects of the site may not function property.
We also collect certain technical information from your computer each time you request a page during a visit to DiamondsRMine.com. This information may include your Internet Protocol (IP) address, your computer's operating system, browser type and the address of a referring Web site, if any. Our website may also use other technical methods to track visitor usage, including web beacons. ("Web beacons" are small pieces of data that are embedded in images on the pages of a website.) We may also use these technical methods to analyze the traffic patterns on our website, such as the frequency with which our users visit various parts of our website. These technical methods may involve the transmission of information either directly to us or to another party authorized by us to collect information on our behalf. We may also use these technical methods in HTML e-mails that we send visitors to our website to determine whether such visitors have opened those e-mails and/or clicked on links in those e-mails. We may collect the information from use of these technical methods in a form that is personally identifiable.
How Information DiamondsRMine Collects Via The DiamondsRMine.com Site Is Used
We may use personally identifiable information we collect about you when you visit and browse our website in many ways. Representative examples of the ways in which we may use personally identifiable information we collect about you when you visit and browse our website are set forth below.
Use in Connection with Completing Transactions
We may use personally identifiable information we collect about you when you visit and browse our website to complete transactions requested by you (such as your purchase of a product or service offered on the DiamondsRMine.com site), including to authorize charges and to send orders to you or to your intended recipient, communicate information concerning order status, or to reach you if there is a problem fulfilling your order. Financial information that is collected is used to bill you for products and services.
Other Uses
Sometimes we hire companies to help deliver products or services, like a shipping company that delivers a package or a company that helps fulfill prizes for a contest. In those instances, there is a need to share your information with these companies. Sometimes we also work with other companies who help either gather your information or communicate with you. Except as separately permitted by the guidelines of this Privacy Statement, these companies are allowed to gather, receive, and use your information only for the purposes described in this paragraph or as permitted by law.
Finally, we may take any personally identifiable information that we collect from you when you visit and browse our website and make it non-personally identifiable, either by combining it with information about other individuals (aggregating your information with information about other individuals), or by removing characteristics (such as your name) that make the information personally identifiable to you (de-personalizing your information). Given the nature of this information, there are no restrictions under the guidelines set forth in this Privacy Statement upon our right to aggregate or de-personalize your personal information, and we reserve the right to use and/or share with third parties the resulting non-personally identifiable information in any way.
Additional Ways Personally Identifiable Information May be Disclosed
1. In Connection With A Sale of All or Part of Our Business
At any time, we may sell all or part of our businesses and your personally identifiable information may be transferred as a part of any such sale. In the event that we do sell all or part of our business, we will include provisions in the selling contract requiring the purchaser to treat your personally identifiable information in the same manner required by this Privacy Statement (including any amendments to this Privacy Statement).
2. As Required By Law, or to Protect Your, Our, or a Third Party's Safety, or Security
We will disclose personal information when it believes in good faith that such disclosures (a) are required by law, including, for example, to comply with a court order or subpoena, or (b) will help to: enforce contest, sweepstakes, promotions, and/or game rules; protect your safety or security, including the safety and security of property that belongs to you; and/or, protect the safety and security of our websites, databases, and/or third parties, including the safety and security of tangible and/or intangible property that belongs to us or to third parties.
Choice/Opt-Out
You may at any time choose to opt-out of receiving postal, electronic mail, and/or telephone communications from DiamondsRMine, or from third parties with whom DiamondsRMine has shared your name, address, telephone number, and/or e-mail address. These opt-out choices are the means by which you give us, or decline to give us, your consent to use this personal information or to share it with third parties. There are three methods by which you can exercise your opt-out choices: (a) at the time you first submit such information via the DiamondsRMine.com site; or (b) after submission, by contacting us by electronic mail support@DiamondsRMine.com, by telephone at 1-877-730-0111, or by postal mail at:
DiamondsRMine Customer Service
5 West 47th Street,
New York, NY 10036
If you elect to contact us by e-mail or postal mail, please include information in your e-mail or letter that will help us identify you so that we can most expeditiously respond to you.
Please note that, if you do not exercise one or more of your opt-out choices when you first submit personal information to DiamondsRMine via the DiamondsRMine.com site, it may take us some time to fully effect your opt-out choices. This is because our systems require time to update, and postal, e-mail, and telephone communications using information shared by you before your opt-out may already be works in process. Thus, you might continue to receive postal, e-mail, or telephone communications from us or a third party based upon the personal information you have provided under this Privacy Statement for a short time after you changed your opt-out choice(s). For similar reasons, your personal information might continue to be shared with third parties for a short time after you change your opt-out choice(s).
To access and update your name, postal address, e-mail address, or any other information that would directly enable us to contact you, or modify your opt-out choices, please either log on via the DiamondsRMine.com and click on or contact us by electronic mail at: support @DiamondsRMine.com, by telephone at 1-877-730-0111, or by postal mail at:
