Website Security Information
Ensuring that your visit to BirthdaysMadeEasy.com is safe & secure is one of our top priorities. We utilize specific policies, procedures and technological safeguards to guarantee that your shopping experience with us is 100% secure.
Our server uses SSL technology to ensure secure transactions.
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) technology is the industry standard and the best software currently available for internet transactions. All online transactions are conducted using this advanced technology. It encrypts all your personal information including name, address, and credit card number so that unauthorized parties cannot read it during transmission.
In order to use SSL technology, a website must have a security certificate installed on the server. Security certificates are issued by a certificate authority (we use SecureTrust) that verifies the identity of the certificate owner (BirthdaysMadeEasy.com). Our certificate contains unique and authenticated information about us that you can view and verify when on a secure page.
You will know you are on a secure page by the url starting with "https://" and the closed padlock on the browser. Clicking on the padlock will display our security certificate information and site validation.
Access to information is restricted.
Customer information which is stored on our servers is protected by security and technological safeguards. Access to any information is controlled and is only allowed for order fulfillment purposes.
Credit card information is not retained.
In order to add another layer of protection, credit card numbers are not stored on our servers or retained by us in any way. We have opted to use sophisticated third-party processing which allows us to authorize, capture and refund orders through Authorize.Net without actually knowing your card number. As a result, your card number is not seen by anyone, including us. This adds another level of security to the checkout process.
Our shopping cart software is Visa/Mastercard PABP certified.
PABP (Payment Application Best Practices) certification indicates adherence to strict security policy and procedural guidelines outlined by VISA & MasterCard to help ensure PCI (Payment Card Industry) compliance.
You may use GoogleCheckout as a 3rd-party checkout option.
If you choose, you may complete your purchase from our store by using GoogleCheckout. GoogleCheckout retains your payment information, which is not shared with us. A GoogleCheckout account will enable you to purchase quickly and easily from merchants who support this service.
