Purchase Transaction Security and SSL Certificate
All credit card transactions on our site are secured with a Symantec SSL certificate. Your card information is encrypted with 2048-bit protection during transmission. You can verify the activation of the SSL connection by checking for the lock icon next to your browser's address bar when entering your card details.
The lock icon at the bottom right corner of the page where you enter your credit card information indicates that the page is encrypted with SSL. Clicking on the icon will provide details about the encryption provider. Your membership and personal information used during registration on our website are kept confidential and are not shared without your consent. SSL software ensures that the information flow between the customer, business, and bank is encrypted using 2048-bit technology, which is mathematically and technically challenging to decipher.
