How Your Information is Protected
We employ administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect our customers’ personal information. When we collect sensitive information (such as payment details), we meet or exceed the industry standards for safeguarding the data. Although we do everything in our power to protect you, even the most robust systems do not guarantee protection from malicious outside sources. It is the cardholder’s responsibility to protect their information against unauthorized disclosure or misuse.
Your privacy is important to us, so we have gone to great lengths to ensure that the security of any information you enter on our site is completely protected. To make this a possibility, we employ an SSL connection, also known as a Secure Sockets Layer. SSL is the industry standard protocol for guaranteeing a secure connection between computers performing transactions over the internet. This protocol encrypts all traffic to our website and guarantees all message integrity, as well as both sender and receiver authenticity.
