 Online Shopping Security

Shopping with us is absolutely 100% guaranteed

We understand that shopping online can feel risky and uncertain. Where does your information go? How can you be sure that someone out there with a computer can't intercept your credit card numbers? Because your credit card security is our highest priority, We have taken several steps to ensure that your payment information is processed confidentially and accurately.

Our servers use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), an advanced encryption technology that works with Netscape Navigator (versions 2.0 and above), Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 3.0 and above), and AOL (AOL 3.0 and above). This encryption makes it absolutely impossible for unauthorized parties to read any information that you send us. Further, all the customer data we collect is protected against unauthorized access.

In the highly unlikely event of credit card fraud, we guarantee your protection against any liability above what is covered by your credit card provider, if reported promptly to your credit card provider. You will simply not be held responsible for the fraudulent charges.

So, there's no risk! In fact, shopping online with us is statistically safer than using your credit card at a restaurant or department store. Give it a try and see for yourself.
