Is my transaction secure? What happens to my credit card information?


We use more than two dozen different industry-standard practices and proprietary techniques to keep your credit card information private and secure.

  1. First and foremost, you should see a small "padlock" icon on the bottom right-hand side of your browser - indicating a secure connection.
  2. Furthermore, the checkout page is located on a HTTPS: connection - which is another indication of a secure connection.
  3. Then, our GeoTrust & VeriSign SSL certificates require your browser to initiate at least a 128-bit secure channel between your PC and our server - so that absolutely no one else can see your data.
  4. Next, we transmit your credit card information in small chunks (never the whole thing at one time) across multiple internet paths to your credit card issuing bank using 256-bit encryption (128-bit encryption is considered totally secure).
  5. Finally, we encrypt only the first and last 4-digits of your credit card for storage (to help us assist you should you have questions about your transaction) in our system using 1024-bit permanently irreversible encryption.
If you have further questions or concerns, please contact our sales and support team.
