OUR SECURITY POLICY

We realise how important it is to securely store any information that you provide and this is why we maintain the highest levels of security.

When you place an order through our secure server, your credit card details are protected from interception.

Security is one of our top priorities and we guarantee to keep all the details you supply us confidential.

Unlike many other companies we do not store your debit or credit card details. In fact we do not even get to see them as the transactional part of purchasing from us is handled by our secur merchant provider.

Please also be aware that we do not send your card details out with your goods either - avoiding any possible security issues in transit.
