SECURITY

 

This page tells you about our Internet security and how you can check that our order pages are secure

Before PAYMENT information entered on our (GTP iCommerce powered) order page is transmitted across the internet, it is first encrypted by an extremely rigorous algorithm called RC4 128 bit (SSL v3.0)which is proven as secure for online shopping and e-commerce.

Despite media paranoia about Internet security, this encryption method is actually more secure than providing your credit card number over the phone. Something many of us do without hesitation.

There are several indicators of a secure web page.

The first is the https:// prefix on the URL. If this page is located within a frames environment you may wish to open the page in its own browser window to confirm for yourself that it is a secure page.

The second indicator of a secure page depends on your browser.

Old versions of Netscape display a blue bar at the top of the page, while newer versions display a key or padlock in the lower left hand corner of the screen. Microsoft Internet Explorer displays a small lock on the lower right hand corner of the screen.

Our digital key, required for secure web page encryption was provided by Thawte. Thawte performs a comprehensive background check on any company before issuing a digital key.

You can confirm the authenticity of our key by doing the following

Microsoft IE3

From the file menu, select properties, then click on the security tab to bring up details of the digital ID

Microsoft IE4 and above

click on the gold padlock to bring up details of the digital ID
