Security

We understand and share your concern about security and privacy. It is reassuring to know that it is statistically safer to use your credit card on the web than to use it in a store or restaurant. The information that you provide when placing an order with us (e.g. your name, address, and credit card information) is secure. It cannot be read or tampered with during transmission. For your security, if you use your credit card with paypal, they authorize your credit card after they obtain confirmation that your card is a valid number and has not been reported lost or stolen. They also verify that the "Bill To" address matches the address on the credit card used. It is not uncommon for a request for credit card authorization to fail at times. Paypal will contact you if they experience such difficulties and you may use another credit card.
