SECURITY

The security of your personal information is important to us.

Our website is scanned regularly for security holes and known vulnerabilities to make your visit to our Site as safe as possible.

We use regular Malware Scanning.

Your personal information is contained behind secured networks. It is only accessible by a limited number of persons who have exclusive access rights to such systems and are required to keep the information confidential.

In addition, all sensitive/credit information you supply is encrypted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.

We implement a variety of security measures when a user places an order enters, submits, or accesses their information to maintain the safety of your personal information.

All transactions are processed through a gateway provider and are not stored or processed on our servers.

Unfortunately, no method of transmission over the internet is entirely secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
