How secure is my information?

  • Site Security: Our website purchase page protects the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
  • We retain only the first four and last four digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
  • Credit Card Numbers: As a security precaution and as a general rule, we store only the first and last four digits of your credit card number. While the complete credit card number is securely transmitted to your bank during order processing, we retain only the first and last four digits in our system to confirm the card used for customer inquiries as well as for the processing of item returns. One exception to this rule is that we do retain a temporary secure copy of the complete credit card number in the rare instance when there is a communication/transmission failure with your financial institution during the payment process. This allows us the ability to retransmit the card information for payment once communications are reestablished. Following the successful completion of the payment we delete the temporary version of the complete credit card number and retain only the first four and last four digits in our system to confirm the card used for customer inquiries as well as for the processing of item returns.
