For processing your payments we use the well established Pay Pal shopping cart system. We do have or hold any access to any information related to your credit cards or Pay Pal accounts. Pay Pal automatically encrypts your confidential information in transit from your computer to the Pay Pal server using the Secure Sockets Layer protocol (SSL) with an encryption key length of 128-bits (the highest level commercially available). Before you even register or log in to our site, our server checks that you are using an approved browser - one that uses SSL 3.0 or higher. Once your information reaches Pay Pal, it resides on a server that is heavily guarded both physically and electronically. The servers sit behind an electronic firewall and are not directly connected to the Internet, so your private information is available only to authorized computers.
