Security
Your privacy and security is important to us. We work carefully to
ensure that your personal information is kept safe and secure throughout
the transaction process. Our site is built on one of the most respected
web application platforms available, and is protected against
unauthorized activity by robust hardware and software security systems.
All sensitive data that is transfered from your system is highly
encrypted. All sensitive data remains encrypted until processed by a
reputable third party payment gateway / processor, PSI Gate or PayPal.
The technology we use to keep your sensitive information safe (SSL) is
commonly accepted as standard for conducting Ecommerce activities Online.
What is SSL?
SSL (Secure Socket Layers) secured web site ensures the privacy of
information being transferred over the Internet through a process called
encryption. Encryption is a procedure whereby information is converted
into a unintelligible code that is decoded only upon arrival at the
authorized destination. This process is very secure and is the method
employed by financial institutions and major e-businesses to conduct
online transactions securely.
To check when an SSL connection has been established, look at the status
bar of your browser to see if it is indicating a secure connection,
usually illustrated by a lock.
Note that SSL is used only for pages where privacy is needed (such as
pages where you enter a credit card number) - regular browsing does not
require SSL.
Your stored information is secured using SSL, and is accessible using
your unique username and password. As with any secure information,
please be sure to keep your password a secret, revealed to no one. The
information that is stored in your account is for your review and our
payment processing only.
