Customers are invoiced directly via Paypal on the designated days given at layaway checkout without fail.

PRIVACY POLICY - Current May 2018

This Privacy Policy describes how and when I collect, use, and share information when you purchase an item from me, contact me, or otherwise use my services through Rubylane.com or its related sites and services.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that I do not own or control, including Ruby Lane or any third party services you access through Ruby Lane.

Information I Collect
To fulfil your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorized Ruby Lane to provide to me), such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information, if you contact me directly.

Additional Information I Collect
Items purchased that require courier shipment – As part of the online courier booking process we are required to provide the courier with the customer's telephone number, email address and full shipping address including any business details such as a company name. If this information is not received during the order process via Ruby Lane, we will need to contact the customer via email or via Ruby Lane message to ask for the additional information.

Layaway items – Due to the extended nature of layaways, sometimes entered into over 6 months ago or more , we may contact the customer before shipment via Ruby Lane message or email to confirm their contact/shipping details. This is to ensure that the item is not sent to an outdated incorrect shipping address and to ensure the item is sent to the most convenient address for the customer e.g. an item sent to the customer’s listed office address rather than their home address. For courier shipments, this is also to ensure that the courier has the customer's up to date contact details.

Why I Need Your Information and How I Use It
I rely on a number of legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:
• as needed to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfil your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support;
• as need by our service providers. I engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as delivery companies. I will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.

I use your information to provide the services you requested and in my legitimate interest to improve my services; and 2) Compliance with the Ruby Lane Seller Policy and Terms of Use. I use your information as necessary to comply with my obligations under the Ruby Lane Seller Policy and Terms of Use.
