Privacy Statement    

Barnacho is committed to safeguarding your privacy online. I will never disclose, sell, rent or lease any information to any third party without your express permission unless required to do so by law. Barnacho does not collect any personally identifiable information except when knowingly provided by an individual during the order process. The following discloses my information gathering and dissemination practices.

Server logs

Like most web sites, Barnacho keeps server logs of accesses to the bernardine.com site. These logs are used  to determine what sections of the site are being accessed so that I can improve the site.  The server logs that I use do not contain any personally identifiable information such as your name or email address.

Cookies

Cookies are bits of information that are stored on your computer by your browser. Barnacho does not set any cookies. However, links to external pages or other web sites may or may not set cookies.   If information is collected by another web site, none of that information is ever requested by or shared with Barnacho

Personal information

Barnacho does not collect personal information on consumers without their consent. In cases when such information is required in order to complete a sale, you are prompted to provide the minimum amount of information necessary.

When you Purchase Items

Personal information, such as your name and address/phone # is never stored online.

When paying for a purchase by credit card, your name, billing address, credit card number and expiration date, phone number and e-mail address are transmitted to PayPal via their secure server. Barnacho never shares or sells any of your personal information with any third party.

In cases where Barnacho has been the victim of fraud, information will be shared with the appropriate law enforcement authorities and legal action will be pursued.

Update List

You may request to be placed on my Update List and be notified when new jewelry items become available by  providing your email address.  Submitting your email address for notification is completely voluntary and is offered as a service to you.  If you choose to provide your email address, I will send periodic updates, usually three to four times a year.  This information is never shared with any third party and is only used by Barnacho to provide update, sale or preview notices. Additionally, I use special software to automatically remove duplicate addresses, so you will never receive more than one notice, unless you have signed up using more than one address.

If you wish to be removed from this preview list, you may do so at any time by sending a blank email with "remove" in the subject line.

Shipping

In the course of shipping your order, your name and shipping address will be shared with an intermediary such as Federal Express, UPS or the U. S. postal service.
