When you click on the
confirmation button to place your order, your details are immediately
encrypted. Once we have taken payment for your order, your credit card
details are deleted from our computer system.
....and now for the science.......
Our site uses industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer
(SSL) technology to provide encryption of personal information such as
your name, address and credit card details. In this way, information
passed between your computer and our website cannot be read in the
unlikely event of someone intercepting it. Credit and debit card
transactions are secure.
We will only accept orders using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology
- this means you cannot inadvertently reveal personal information by
using an unsecure connection. The latest versions of Microsoft
Internet Explorer (3.0 and up) and Netscape Navigator (3.02 and up)
both support this secure connection. If for any reason this option has
been disabled on your browser, you will not be able to transact or
login until you reset these options.
- For Netscape
go to Communicator, Tools, Security Info,
Navigator and tick 'Enable SSLv2' and 'Enable SSLv3' boxes
- For Internet Explorer
go to Tools, Internet Options,
Advanced and. tick the 'Use SSL 2.0' and 'Use SSL 3.0' boxes under
'Security'
You can check that you are shopping in a secure environment by looking
for either a locked padlock icon (Internet Explorer) or an image of a
key (Netscape) in the grey bar at the bottom of your screen. This will
appear on any page where you are entering personal information (such
as your credit card details) - no other page will transmit information
about you.
