| How secure is the
order process? The order process is protected
via a secure connection so that the data sent to the recipient can
only be read by the recipient. Important information such as credit
card numbers, addresses, etc. is sent to the recipient securely
via the Internet.
All of the data entered on the protected pages is encrypted using
the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol. Our servers support SSL
Version 3 and 168-bit Triple DES encryption. The RSA module and
SSL sessions feature 1024-bit encryption.
In Netscape, you can tell that SSL is activated if you see a closed
padlock in the lower left corner of the browser window. In Internet
Explorer, the padlock icon is located at lower right in the status
bar of the browser window. If you do not see the padlock icon when
you enter our order process from the product vendor's website, then
please do not access the order form by left-clicking the link or
button on the vendor's page, but instead right-click and select
'Open in new window' from the options displayed. The padlock will
then be displayed on this page.
You can also tell that the page is protected if the URL displayed
in the address bar begins with "https:".
