Are
credit card transactions secure?
As
secure as they can be on the Internet. We process credit cards via secure
server with SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption as all prudent merchants
on the Net do, so there is no real risk of somebody stealing your number.
SSL
is probably the most common and reliable encryption on the WWW. Using
SSL browser encryption provided by Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer,
your
credit card information is kept private while being transferred over the
Internet. Not
only is your credit card information transmitted securely, but all of
the information about the order (with our order form) is transmitted in
secure mode to insure privacy.
|
Your
credit card is encrypted until it is transmitted via a dedicated line
to your processing bank. Only you, us, and the processing bank have access
to unencrypted credit card information.
This
is equivalent or better security to what millions of retail merchants
have today. We will have your credit card information on file only for
the purpose of assisting you if you have problems processing your order
on-line, or to issue any refunds.
We
never charge your card without your authorization. No "recurring"
charges, no membership fees. Guaranteed.

What
is CVV2 / CVC2 ?
The CVV2/CVC2
is a three-digit security code that is printed on the back of cards.
The number appears in reverse italic at the top of the signature panel
at the end (see sample).
For your
protection this program helps validate that a genuine card is being used
during a transaction. All MasterCard and Visa cards, both credit and debit,
were required to contain CVC2.
