Service: Jersey Girl Pearls LLC reserves the right to replace a pearl that is damaged due to normal setting procedures that are standard in the in industry. We are not responsible for any damage to your pearl that occurs in our industry standard setting process, and we offer no guarantees that it will not be damaged. A pearl will be considered damaged if it is cracked through it’s outer nacre surface with a crack depth of greater than 1mm depth. A surface scratch on a pearl is not considered “damage”. Because pearl value is highly subjective we cannot offer replacement value for your pearl but we will match it as closely as we can with pearls that we currently have in stock if you wish. If your pearl is not suitable for setting, or is damaged during setting, or is replaced by another pearl in your setting, we will return your original pearl to you. Once a pearl has been drill set and added to a piece of jewelry the completed piece will be considered the value that was paid for the piece of jewelry. Pearl damage during setting is extremely rare and we make every effort to ensure the integrity and beauty of your pearls.

Cookies
A cookie is a small file stored on your computer by a website to give you a unique ID. [This site does not currently use “cookies.” In the future, this site may use cookies for site administration purposes.] We use cookies to track new visitors to this site and to recognize past users so that we may customize and personalize content.

Web Beacons
Web pages on this site or e-mail messages you receive from us may contain a small graphic image called a web beacon (sometimes called a web bug or clear gif). Web beacons are typically very small (generally 1-by-1 pixel) and invisible to the user, however any electronic image viewed as part of a web page or e-mail message, including an advertisement or HTML content, can act as a web beacon. Web beacons are designed to allow us or a third party to collect certain information and monitor user activity on our site. Collected information can include the IP address of the computer that the web beacon is sent to, the URL of the page the web user comes from, and the time the web beacon is activated (such as when you view the web page, advertisement, or e-mail that contains the web beacon).

Conversion Tracking
Search engines offer a feature called “conversion tracking” which is a way to track clicks to sales from either search results or ads on search engines.
