We hold these names for the anti-money-laundering and responsible-sourcing checks the Responsible Jewellery Council requires of its certified members. If no account is opened, we delete them two years after the application arrives. If one is, we keep them while it is open and for seven years after it closes. Only our suppliers acting on our instructions, Responsible Jewellery Council auditors during certification audits, and authorities where the law requires it can see them. See the privacy policy.
