The checkout and confirmation areas of our site are secured using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption. This ensures that your credit card number and personal information are never sent over the internet unencrypted. Your credit card information is immediately stored in its encrypted form within the data center. Once it is encrypted, no one except the credit card authorization company can decrypt it. Encryption is provided by VeriSign, who is recognized as the leader in secure e-commerce payment technologies and services.
