Guarantee Details: Secure Internet Connections: How do I know if my transaction is secure on this website?:
This web site uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to encrypt your credit card and personal information when you complete a purchase.  To verify that SSL technology is in place check the address bar on the page that asks for your credit card and personal information.  This page displays during the checkout process when you click on the "Complete Order" button.  The address should begin with "https:" instead of "http:".  The lock and "https" only displays on the pages containing your personal information and not on other pages while you are shopping.  It is only your credit card and personal information that needs protection.  After you have entered this information it is still on your computer and cannot be seen by anyone else until you click on the "Submit Order for Processing" button.  This is the screen where you want to make sure the lock displays on the screen and "https" displays at the begining of the address bar.  When you click on the "Submit Order for Processing" button your information will be sent via SSL and cannot be read by anyone else on the Internet.
Other ways to tell whether a web site uses security software: Again, you will only see the lock or key when you are on the pages where you enter your personal and credit card information.  You will not see the lock or key on any other pages while you are on this website. Your browser displays the icon of a locked padlock at the bottom of the screen (Netscape Navigator™; - versions 4.0 and higher) You see the icon of an unbroken key at the bottom of the screen (earlier versions of Netscape Navigator™); You see the icon of a lock on the status bar (Microsoft Internet Explorer®).
