We record client information on our invoicing system, including your name, address and email alongside order details. This information is encrypted and secured electronically, held within a third party GDPR compliant system. This information allows us to track material goods, sales information and order details to serve clients with after-sales support in the future. We do not store any physical invoice copies to ensure your data is protected.
We do not require customers to register, sign in or use an account. This reduces the amount of data we hold and improves your online experience. Instead, purchases can be made simply and easily without the need for an account.
Under the guidelines of the Information Commissioner's Office, we have identified the lawful basis on which we process data as:
6(1)(a) Consent from the data subject
6(1)(b) Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with the data subject or to take steps to enter into a contract
6(1)(c) Processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation
HTTPS (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure) is the secure version of the HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP). When you connect to a website through HTTPS, your visit is encrypted with a digital SSL Certificate. You can tell if you are securely connected to a Website by looking at the URL. If the URL begins with https:// instead of HTTP://, the page is secure. When you connect to a website with an SSL Certificate, all of the data passed back and forth between yourself and the website is secure and encrypted. By having SSL on all web pages of our site, your visit is secured the entire time you are on our site – protecting any and all data that is transferred.
Google believes that always-on https is critical to online security and data privacy.
The Veritas Diamonds website is integrated with third-party payment systems (Shopify Payments, Stripe and Paypal) that are fully PCI compliant to ensure that payment information is never stored. In store, we use chip and pin to ensure the security of your payment.

Our database will only be accessible by our small team of employees at Veritas Diamonds concerned with the running and administration of our client base and all information contained is treated confidentially.
