Secure Order Form:
Since you are
making a purchase over the Internet, we want to provide you with the
confidence that your transactions are completely safe. Therefore, we are
using Pacific Web Works to provide secure server transactions via their shopping cart. Pacific Web Works employs SSL technology to ensure
your information is safe and secure from the time you click a key, all the
way through the Internet, and finally to our order processing department.
WHAT IS SSL?
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a commonly-used protocol for managing the
security of message transmission on the Internet.
WHY SSL?
An encrypted SSL connection requires all information sent between a
client and a server to be encrypted by the sending software and
decrypted by the receiving software, thus providing a high degree of
confidentiality. Confidentiality is important for both parties to any
private transaction. In addition, all data sent over an encrypted SSL
connection is protected with a mechanism for detecting tampering
— that is, for automatically
determining whether the data has been altered in transit.
