Paisley Creek is a secure e-commerce
site. The transfer of sensitive information
between you and Paisley Creek is protected
by the highest standard of encryption technology
available on the Internet. Public/private
key cryptography enables a secure "conversation"
between your browser and our secure server.
Once you enter the Checkout process
(when you are ready to purchase the items you have
put into your shopping cart), your connection to our
server becomes secure. To confirm this, look near
the bottom of your browser window. If you see an unbroken
key or a closed lock you can be sure that your information
is secure. You can also see evidence of the security
by checking the URL line of your browser. When you
enter the secure areas of our site, the first characters
of the site address will change from "http"
to "https" - (e.g. https://www.paisleycreek.com)
Our secure server utilizes SSL
encryption technology to ensure online visitors
that credit card account numbers and other
confidential information cannot be viewed,
intercepted or altered. The SSL (secure socket
layer) protocol is the web standard for encrypting
communications between users and web sites.
Data sent via an SSL connection is protected
by encryption, a mechanism that prevents eavesdropping
and tampering with any transmitted data. SSL
provides businesses and consumers with the
confidence that private data sent to a web
site, such as credit card numbers, are kept
confidential. Web server certificates are
required to initialize an SSL session. Paisley
Creek has obtained its SSL certificate from
GeoTrust - the world's second largest certificate
authority, serving over 50,000 customers in
80 countries. GeoTrust provides secure e-commerce
transactions, identity verification and authentication
services to the global web community.
