How do we protect your information?

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information when you submit a request or place an order.

These security measures include PCI Scanning to actively protect our servers from hackers and other vulnerabilities, password protected directories and databases to safeguard your information, SSL (Secure Sockets Layered) technology to ensure that your information is fully encrypted and sent across the Internet securely, and limiting access to your information on a "need to know" basis.

We offer the use of a secure server. All supplied sensitive, personal, or credit information is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our database to be only accessed by those authorized with special access rights to our systems, and are required to keep the information confidential.

After a transaction, your credit card information is stored on our payment gateway provider's secure database, and is only accessible by those authorized with special access rights who are required by law to keep the information confidential.
