Security
This Web site takes every precaution to protect our users’ information.
When users submit sensitive information via the Web site, their
information is protected both online and off-line.
When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive
information (such as credit card number and/or social security number),
that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption
software in the industry – Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). While on a secure
page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web
browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer
becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when users are just
‘surfing’.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we
also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line.
All of our users’ information, not just the sensitive information
mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need
the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing
clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to
personally identifiable information. All employees are kept up-to-date
on our security and privacy practices. Every six months, as well as any
time new policies are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded
about the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure
our users’ information is protected. Finally, the servers that store
personally identifiable information are in a secure environment.
