Secure ServerA secure server is usually used when
confidential information needs to be sent across the Internet. This
information might be password details to allow access to a system, or
credit card or other personal details which allow some sort of
transaction to be performed.
When a secure server is in use, the information is encrypted by your web
browser prior to sending it across the Internet. The information can
only be decoded by the host site which requested it. In the unlikely
event that anyone could intercept the information as it crossed the
Internet, it is practically impossible for them to break the encryption.
We do not recommend that you submit private or sensitive information
over the Internet to an insecure server. Current versions of all popular
browsers support secure server access. You should always make sure
you’re on a secure server before entering your credit card numbers. Most
web browsers provide a message telling you you’re on a secure server. On
many web browsers, you will see a lock icon like this
in the
lower right corner of the status bar.
We use an online credit card processing service provided by
Authorize.Net. Your contact
information is collected on our server then passed along to with your
order. Your credit card numbers are not collected until you reach the
secure server.
