SECURITY

Security of all personally identifiable information associated with our customers and visitors is a primary concern of ours.  Thus, we have adopted reasonable security measures to protect the security of our users’ information.  We use a secure layer for all data transmission within our site.  We use, where appropriate, industry standard Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology and computer server firewalls when transferring and receiving consumer data exchanged with this Website, including the protection of credit card data during transmission which is handled by Stripe.  Nevertheless, we cannot guarantee complete security of your information inasmuch as no security systems are foolproof.  It is also important for you to protect against the unauthorized access to your information as well as to your computer.
