Security:
Protecting your order information is our
priority. We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
technology to protect the security of your
online order information. SSL encrypts your
order information to avoid the decoding of
that information by anyone other than our
store. This means you'll be unable to
inadvertently place an order through an
unsecured connection. To check the security
of your connection, look at the lower
left-hand corner of your browser window
after accessing the server. If you see an
unbroken key or a closed lock (depending on
your browser), SSL is active. You can also
double-check by looking at the URL line of
your browser: When accessing a secure
server, the first characters of the site
address will change from "http" to "https."
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology uses
common browsers; for example, 3.0 versions
or higher of Netscape Navigator and versions
3.02 or higher of Internet Explorer. Some
versions of browsers and some firewalls
don't permit communication through secure
servers. In that case, you'll be unable to
connect to the server, which means you won't
be able to mistakenly place an order through
an unsecured connection. It is our policy to
never send private information, such as your
credit card number, via email. In fact, this
is a policy we recommend you adopt in all of
your Internet activities.
If you setup your browser not to accept
cookies you might not be able to place an
order with us. A "cookie" is a small piece
of information that many web sites use to
help make shopping online easier. This
information is stored on your computer's
hard drive. We do not store personally
identifiable information in your cookie. We
use cookies in order to improve your
shopping experience. When you visit our
store, your cookie helps us keep track of
your shopping preferences. If you choose to
register with us, your cookie allows us to
recognize you when you return to our site
and provides you with access to your account
information. Your cookie also assists us in
keeping track of your shopping bag. Cookies
are no more dangerous than the web page
viewed along with them. Since they can only
be read by your browser and the site that
issues them, you should attach the same
level of trust to cookies as you do to the
site that issues them as a whole. |
