Online Payments and Server Security
Online Payments and Server Security
Your credit card account information is not stored in our database, but is relayed to a PayPal.com secure payment processing gateway and the transaction is either approved or declined in "real time" and only the transaction status data is returned to our site and stored in the database.
All orders are encrypted with Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology on both your end and ours. SSL encrypts all of your personal information including credit card number, name, and address, so that it cannot be read as the information travels over the Internet. In order for SSL to work, you must use an SSL-enabled browser.
