All information pertaining directly to the customer is considered
private. This information includes the following: name, mailing
address, e-mail address, telephone number, date of birth,
and credit card number.
3. Who is authorized to view private information?
Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts and Jewelers-Services
staff are authorized to view the customer's private information
(except for the credit card number) so that we are better
able to serve that particular customer when and if the customer
contacts us for questions and service. Jewelers-Services staff
members are authorized to view a customer's private information
for business purposes, since Jewelers-Services is responsible
for completing orders made by the customer through Ballerina
Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts.
Select Jewelers-Services staff members are authorized to
access a customer's entered credit card information. However,
these staff members use the information for the express purpose
of completing the customer's order through Ballerina Cowgirl
Jewelry & Gifts. All credit card information is secured
through the Jewelers-Services Secure Server (see the Security
Guarantee) and the transaction process which leads to
the approval of the customer's credit card information. During
the transaction process, transaction services and financial
institutions may view a customer's private information for
the purpose of completing financial transactions.
Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts and Jewelers-Services
will release private information when such information is
requested by federal, state, or local legal authorities. Ballerina

release private information whenever necessary to protect

program, Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts, the customer,
and/or other individuals associated with the Jewelers-Services
program.
4. Who is not authorized to view private information?
Anyone who is not a Jewelers-Services staff member, a staff
member of Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts servicing
the customer, or a staff member of a transaction service or
financial institution involved in the financial transaction
process, is not authorized to view private information under
normal circumstances.
It is not the policy of Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts
to release a customer's private information to businesses
and organizations engaged in commercial mailings and the like.
A customer submits private information for the exclusive purpose
of completing an order and receiving service.
5. Are there security risks for which Ballerina Cowgirl
Jewelry & Gifts cannot be held responsible?
Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts Secure Server Guarantee
(see the
Security Guarantee) serves as the customer's guarantee
of the security of all transactions made through the Jewelers-Services
Secure Server using its integrated SSL (Secure Socket Layer)
technology.
When a customer sends private information to Ballerina
Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts through any method other than
the Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts Secure Server,
no guarantee of the security of private information is provided.
All e-mails, telephone calls, letters, and other forms of
communication not through the Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry
& Gifts Secure Server, should be considered insecure and
able to be intercepted in transit by unauthorized parties.
Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts considers the likelihood
of interception of such forms of communication by unauthorized
parties low but finds it necessary to point out the risk of
such interception.
6. Is there any other information that does not fit the
"private" classification and that Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry
& Gifts can record?
Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts and Jewelers-Services
frequently have access to information that is not directly
related to the customer himself or herself. Ballerina Cowgirl
Jewelry & Gifts has the ability to record a user's IP
address (the address that identifies a user's computer on
the Internet); however, in most cases, this information cannot
be traced back to the customer. Other information accessible
to Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts computer systems
through the Internet includes, in many cases, the customer's
computer operating system, browser software description, browser
version, domain name, and referring web page.
Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts may use "cookies,"
or information stored on a customer's computer, for the purpose
of providing online services to the customer. It is the opinion
of Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts that the use of
"cookies" will benefit the customer, Ballerina Cowgirl
Jewelry & Gifts, and the Jewelers-Services program, when
applicable, by providing a profile related to the customer's
online history with Ballerina Cowgirl Jewelry & Gifts
and the customer's preferences.
The customer should be aware that the above types of information,
among others, may be sent by his or her computer across the
Internet and that he or she may not be aware of it. Use of
