Privacy Policy

Secure Shopping

At BC Custom Jewelry, complete security for customer transactions is our primary concern. With these measures in place, you can be confident in the security of the BC Custom Jewelry website.

SSL Encryption

When we transfer sensitive personal information such as credit card information over the Internet, we protect it using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology, the industry standard method for computers to communicate securely without risk of manipulation or recipient impersonation. We utilize this encryption during the online checkout process, including the acceptance of your credit card information.

We are registered with Verisign, the leader in digital authentication services and products for electronic commerce and other forms of secure communications. With Verisign, you can be assured that you have a secure communication with BC Custom Jewelry.

Payment Options

To give you flexibility and help you feel comfortable, we offer you a choice of options for payment of your purchases.

Credit Card

We are able to process approval of your credit card within 24 hours, which expedites the transfer of funds and minimizes the delay of shipment. We obtain credit card authorization from the card-issuing bank and employ other verification techniques before completing any transaction. We will not store your credit card or payment information after your transaction with BC Custom Jewelry is completed.

Telephone

If you prefer not to use your credit card over the Internet, you can give us a call at 800-888-8888 to place your order, or follow the instructions from Your Shopping cart to complete your order via telephone. It will be our pleasure to have one of our experienced representatives assist you.

Signature Requirements for Delivery

For your protection, BC Custom Jewelry insures and registers all items for their full value. BC Custom Jewelry requires that all deliveries must be made to a physical business or home address only - we do not ship to P.O. Box addresses. We also require an adult to sign for the delivery.

BC CUSTOM JEWELRY PRIVACY GUARANTEE

Your privacy is very important to us. This privacy policy explains what information BC Custom Jewelry collects, why we collect this information and how we use the information we collect.
