Customer service > Security and Privacy
Is it really safe to provide you with my Credit Card details over the Internet?
We have in place the most sophisticated technology possible to ensure that your Credit Card details are securely encrypted using SSL technology and transmitted to your financial institution for instant approval.
SSL encryption is a process by which software scrambles sensitive information while it is in transit over the Internet. This system is used worldwide by legitimate on-line shopping sites and is no different to using your credit card at a retail store, where your personal details are communicated to your financial institution over a phone line.
How can I tell if my browser is secure?
You will know that your browser is in 'secure mode' by the appearance of a security notice when you enter a secure page. In addition to this a secure icon will be displayed in the lower left hand corner of your browser window. For Netscape, this icon is a key, for Microsoft Internet Explorer it is a lock.
Secure web pages can also be identified by their URL as they begin with https:// while standard pages begin with http://
