Security

Your security is a high priority for us. The sections of the Website used to process online credit card transactions are encrypted using industry standard 128 bit SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption.

Credit card details that you enter into your browser are scrambled inside your browser before traveling over the Internet to the Website. This means that other computers cannot make sense of it. However, as we cannot guarantee the security of any information transmitted over the Internet you should be aware that there will always be a risk in transmitting information to us through the Website.

You will know when you are looking at a secure page because there will be a key or padlock icon showing in the lower status bar of your browser window.

We do not store your credit card details - they are solely used for processing of your payment. Consequently you will be asked to provide your credit card number and expiry date each time you make a purchase or credit your account. Whilst this may be of slight inconvenience, we believe it worthwhile to ensure the safety of your credit card details.
