Secure Ordering

We use Secured Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to ensure the privacy of all transactions and personal information. This ensures that when you make an online purchase with us your personal information (including your name, delivery address, e-mail id, contact number and credit/debit card number) is encrypted and scrambled before it is sent to us which makes it virtually unreadable for anyone other than us to read it. This is done automatically whenever you access a page containing sensitive information. Additionally, unless you specifically direct us, no 3rd party is able to access or receive any of your personal information.

To be sure that you are accessing our secure server, before you submit personal financial information, look at the left corner of your browser search field. If you see a non broken key or a closed lock, it means that the SSL is active. Depending on your browser, you can click on the lock/key to bring out a dropdown window which will give you detailed information about the security feature of the transaction. Additionally when you look at the address line of your browser, if your transaction is secure, the first characters of the address in that line would change from "http" to "https".
