Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to the official website and online jewelry retail services of United A&S Jewelry Inc. It complies with applicable U.S. federal and state privacy regulations—including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)—and outlines the rules governing our collection, use, storage, and sharing of users' personal information. By accessing the website, registering an account, or placing an order for jewelry products, users within the United States acknowledge that they have fully read, understood, and agreed to all terms of this Privacy Policy.

Effective Date
This Privacy Policy becomes effective on August 11, 2026. All previous versions of the privacy policy are superseded as of this date, and any future updates will be governed by the version published on the official website.

What Information We Collect
We collect only information that identifies you personally or relates to order transactions and website services. This falls into two categories: personal information that can directly identify you, and device access data that cannot identify you on its own.
Personal information includes all details you voluntarily provide when registering an account, placing an order, or contacting customer service, such as your full name, email address, shipping address (street, city, state, and postal code), contact phone number, bank card payment details, order history, records of customer service inquiries, return or exchange requests, and photos of proof for after-sales service.
Device and access information automatically collected by the website includes your device model, operating system, browser type, unique device identifier, IP address, page browsing history, time spent on the site, product click history, on-site actions, and approximate geographic location.
Marketing interaction information includes preferences submitted when subscribing to brand emails or participating in online activities, jewelry style preferences, and feedback on marketing interactions.
We do not proactively collect highly sensitive information such as social security numbers, biometric data, or full bank card security codes. During the payment process, basic card information is verified temporarily by compliant payment service providers, and our platform does not permanently store full payment security verification codes.

Sources of Personal Information
We obtain personal information through four categories of channels, and all data collection practices comply with U.S. online privacy standards.
The first category consists of information you provide directly and voluntarily. This includes all personal information submitted when you register for a website account, browse and use the platform's full range of shopping services, communicate with customer service via email or online messaging, fill out forms to submit information, enter shipping and payment details during checkout, or proactively send us personal content.
The second category comprises information automatically collected by the system while you use our website services. When you access the official website, browse jewelry products, or place orders using devices such as computers or mobile phones, the system automatically captures device parameters, browsing behavior data, and page interaction records via device interfaces, cookies, and similar tracking technologies. This collection process is automated, and we obtain your authorization via pop-up notifications on the page.
The third category comes from cooperative service providers. When we engage third-party organizations to provide services such as website technical maintenance, payment processing, logistics and shipping, customer after-sales support, cloud storage, or data analysis, these providers collect and process only the necessary order-related personal information on our behalf; furthermore, all such providers are required to sign data confidentiality agreements.
The fourth category involves cooperative business partners and compliant third-party organizations, including brand marketing platforms, advertising service providers, and logistics partners. We receive limited, non-sensitive access data from these sources—used solely for personalized jewelry product recommendations—only after obtaining your explicit permission; we do not access your full identity information without authorization.

How We Use Your Information
All collected personal information is used solely for the legitimate business purposes outlined below and will not be misused beyond the scope of the original collection intent.
To fulfill jewelry orders: verifying the customer's identity and shipping address; arranging domestic US shipping via UPS; managing post-sales processes such as returns, exchanges, and refunds; verifying return eligibility against order details; and ensuring a complete transaction lifecycle.
To maintain website operations and security: detecting anomalous logins, fraud risks, and malicious access; troubleshooting page errors; optimizing product displays and loading speeds; and enhancing the overall browsing and shopping experience.
To facilitate customer service: handling inquiries, complaints, and post-sales requests; responding via email or online messaging; and verifying order details to process various post-sales applications.
To ensure financial and tax compliance: retaining transaction records and payment logs; meeting US accounting and tax record-keeping requirements; and managing refund reconciliation and fund verification.
To conduct compliant marketing: sending notifications about new jewelry, promotional events, and limited-time discounts (subject to your explicit consent), with the option for you to unsubscribe at any time.
To perform data analysis and product optimization: analyzing anonymized browsing data to understand jewelry style preferences; adjusting product listings; and optimizing page layouts and the purchasing process.
To fulfill legal obligations: complying with lawful requests from US government agencies, courts, and regulatory bodies; responding to official documents such as subpoenas and search warrants; and protecting the legitimate rights and interests of the platform, users, and third parties.
To manage business changes: transferring relevant user transaction data in accordance with regulations in the event of mergers, acquisitions, asset transfers, or business liquidation, while providing advance notice regarding the rules of such changes.

Circumstances Under Which We Disclose Personal Information
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to unrelated third parties without your explicit consent, unless a statutory exception applies. Information is shared with designated entities only in the compliant scenarios listed below; all recipients are required to sign strict data confidentiality agreements that limit their use of the data to the specific services commissioned and prohibit further disclosure.
Sharing information with partner service providers: This includes platform website-building technology providers, payment processors, cloud storage providers, data analytics firms, customer service system providers, UPS logistics partners, and order warehousing and fulfillment providers. These entities may use your information solely to complete the specific tasks assigned to them—for example, payment processors handling charges and refunds, logistics providers printing shipping labels and delivering jewelry packages, and data analytics firms compiling anonymous product browsing statistics.
Limited data sharing with marketing partners: Data is shared to facilitate personalized jewelry advertisements and marketing campaigns for new products. We transmit only anonymized browsing behavior data and do not provide core identity information—such as full names or home addresses—to advertisers. You have the right to opt out of targeted advertising based on cross-site browsing history and may contact customer service at any time to disable personalized marketing data sharing.
Disclosure based on your explicit instructions or written consent: For instance, if you voluntarily request that shipping information be synced with logistics channels, or if you use a social media account for quick login, the relevant social media platform will receive basic account identifier information.
Sharing transaction data with group affiliates and brand partner branches: Data is shared solely for centralized after-sales support, membership services, and order reconciliation; data access rights are strictly controlled within the group.
Disclosure related to business transactions: In the event of business changes such as mergers, acquisitions, asset sales, or bankruptcy liquidation, user orders and transaction records will be transferred to the successor entity as business assets. The successor entity remains bound by the data usage standards set forth in this Privacy Policy.
Disclosure to fulfill legal obligations and protect rights: We may submit necessary order information to judicial or law enforcement agencies to comply with local U.S. laws and regulations; respond to lawful information requests from public regulatory bodies; enforce website terms of service and transaction policies; protect platform operational security and the legitimate rights of other users and third parties; and address disputes involving fraud, unauthorized card usage, or malicious complaints.

Data Security and Retention
Data Security Measures

United A&S Jewelry Inc. employs a multi-layered security system that meets U.S. financial industry standards to comprehensively protect the security of your personal information during storage and transmission. High-strength encryption protocols are enabled across all website pages; all user information is automatically encrypted during upload and interaction to prevent interception, theft, or tampering. Internal backend systems utilize tiered access controls, restricting data access to authorized personnel in order processing, after-sales, and finance roles, with logs maintained for all access activities. Partnering third-party service providers are required to sign data confidentiality agreements and undergo regular security compliance audits to prevent unauthorized disclosure of user information.
While we have established robust protection mechanisms, online data transmission cannot be guaranteed as 100% secure. In the event of information leakage caused by uncontrollable incidents—such as cyberattacks or unauthorized third-party disclosures—we will promptly notify affected users via their registered email addresses, report the incident to regulatory bodies in accordance with U.S. privacy laws, and simultaneously implement remedial measures such as halting the leak and resetting access permissions.
Data Retention Periods
We store your personal information only for the duration necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, automatically anonymizing or permanently deleting it once the retention period expires.
Basic Account Registration Information: Retained while the account remains active. Upon your request to close the account, we will remove all personally identifiable information within 90 days, retaining only anonymized order statistics.
Order, Transaction, Payment, and Logistics Records: Retained in full for 7 years in compliance with U.S. tax and commercial regulations. Upon expiration, personally identifiable information (such as names and addresses) is removed, leaving only non-identifiable consumption statistics.
Customer Service Communications and After-Sales Records (Returns/Exchanges): Retained in full for 2 years for dispute resolution purposes, then automatically cleared.
Cookie and Website Browsing Data: Retained for no more than 2 years; you may clear local cookie files at any time via your browser settings.
Marketing Subscription Records: Upon your cancellation of marketing communications, we remove the interaction data used for advertising while retaining a record of your marketing opt-out status.
In cases involving unresolved disputes, regulatory investigations, or pending after-sales requests, the relevant information will be retained until the matter is fully resolved, after which it will be cleared in accordance with the standard retention schedule.

Third-Party Links
This official website may contain links to external third-party websites and shortcuts to social media platforms, including social networking sites, official websites of payment service providers, and logistics tracking sites. This Privacy Policy applies solely to data collection practices on the United A&S Jewelry Inc. website; third-party sites have their own independent privacy policies, and we have no control over how those platforms collect or use your information.
We recommend that you review the privacy policies of any third-party platforms you visit via these links to understand their data processing practices. We assume no legal liability for data breaches or unauthorized data collection occurring on third-party websites.

In accordance with privacy laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and regulations in states like Virginia and Colorado, users in the United States possess the following rights regarding the control of their personal information. You may submit requests at any time via our customer service email; the platform charges no fees for processing these requests.
You have the right to access all personal information stored by the platform and may request a copy of your complete order history, browsing history, and interaction records;
You have the right to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information held by the platform, such as updating your shipping address, contact number, or account email;
You have the right to request the deletion of all personally identifiable information stored by the platform, including closing your account and clearing associated data (with the exception of anonymized transaction records required to be retained for tax purposes);
You have the right to opt out of the use of your personal data for targeted marketing advertisements and may disable personalized jewelry recommendations at any time;
You have the right to limit the platform's collection and use of sensitive personal information and may specifically disable non-essential tracking cookies;
You have the right to withdraw previously granted authorizations for data use, including consent for marketing communications and the collection of device usage data;
You have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information with third-party marketing agencies;
If you have concerns regarding how we handle your personal information, you may file a complaint with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) or your state's privacy regulatory authority.
When you submit a request regarding your rights, we will verify your identity to prevent unauthorized access to or deletion of your data. The standard processing time is 1–3 business days, while requests requiring complex verification will be addressed within a maximum of 10 business days.

Children's Privacy
This site is designed for adult jewelry consumers aged 18 and older; all services related to shopping, registration, and order placement are available exclusively to individuals aged 18 or older. We strictly adhere to the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA); we do not knowingly or intentionally collect personally identifiable information from individuals under the age of 18, nor do we target marketing advertisements at minors.
Should we become aware that we have inadvertently obtained information—such as names, email addresses, home addresses, or phone numbers—belonging to users under the age of 18, we will immediately and permanently delete all such data and cease any storage or use thereof.
If you are a guardian and discover that a child under the age of 18 has submitted personal information to this site without parental permission, please contact our customer service team directly. Upon verifying your status as the guardian, we will immediately remove all records associated with that individual. Individuals under the age of 18 are prohibited from independently registering accounts, submitting personal information, or placing orders; they may only browse the site when accompanied and authorized by a guardian and cannot initiate transactions.

Cookies and Similar Tracking Technologies
This site utilizes cookies, web storage markers, tracking pixels, and similar technologies to store small data files on your device, distinguishing between "essential service" cookies and "marketing/analytics" cookies.
Essential cookies are necessary for the website's operation; they are used to save items in your shopping cart, maintain your login status, and process order checkout information. Disabling them will prevent you from successfully browsing and placing orders; therefore, no separate authorization is required for their use.
Non-essential cookies—covering functionality, analytics, and marketing—are used to track product browsing preferences, analyze site traffic, and display personalized advertisements for jewelry offers. A consent prompt will appear upon your first visit, allowing you to choose whether to accept or decline the collection of data via non-essential cookies.
You may clear locally stored cookie files or permanently disable cookie collection on your device at any time through your computer or mobile browser settings. Disabling cookies will only affect personalized recommendation features; basic shopping and ordering services will remain unaffected.
Device access data collected via cookies is used solely for anonymous statistical analysis and is not linked to your core personal information, such as your name or shipping address.

Changes to the Privacy Policy
United A&S Jewelry Inc. reserves the right to amend or update any part of this Privacy Policy in response to new U.S. federal or state privacy regulations or changes in our business operations.
In the event of material changes—such as adjustments to the scope of data collection, modifications to rules regarding third-party data sharing, or updates to provisions concerning user data rights—we will post a prominent notice on the homepage of our official website and send a notification regarding the policy changes to the email address associated with your registered account. Minor revisions, such as wording improvements or stylistic adjustments, will result only in an update to the page version and will not trigger a separate email notification.
The updated version of the policy becomes effective on the day it is posted on the website. Your continued access to the site, submission of orders, or use of our shopping services constitutes acceptance of all terms of the updated Privacy Policy. If you do not accept the revised rules, you may discontinue use of all online services provided by this site and contact customer service to request the cancellation of your account and the deletion of your personal information.
