any information you enter is secure and not visible to anyone else.
We take the security of your data seriously and have made significant investments to ensure our website meets PCI compliance standards. This includes regular on-site assessments and continuous risk management to safeguard the information in our shopping cart.
To further protect your payment details, we may cancel an order if we detect any suspicious activity during the purchase process. Some indicators we monitor include:
- Web Proxies: These are often used to mask a user's location, such as city or country.
- Multiple Payment Attempts: If there are numerous unsuccessful attempts to charge different credit cards or guess security codes.
- Billing Address: While you can ship to any US address, the billing address must match the one associated with the card.
- Unusual Email Addresses: Emails that don’t seem related to the person or business making the purchase may raise concerns.
While we do not want to cause inconvenience by canceling an order, we also want to prevent unauthorized use of your credit card.
What is PCI Compliance?
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a set of security measures established to protect credit card and debit card information. These guidelines, set by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council, were created to reduce the risk of fraud by securing cardholder data.
To be able to accept payments from major credit card providers like Visa, or MasterCard, our website’s software and hosting must adhere to these PCI compliance requirements.
