We understand how important it is to securely store any information that you provide. You can therefore rest assured that we take the privacy and security of your payment and personal details very seriously.

In order to ensure the safety of your data, we currently outsource our transaction security to Protx, a Payment Service Provider. As the largest independent Payment Service Provider in the country, Protx has achieved the highest level of compliance under the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI) and adheres to the most stringent levels of fraud screening.

All of your details are collected via a secured payment page using 128-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. Your credit card information is then further encrypted to make sure that your transactions with us are private and protected, making it virtually impossible for unauthorised parties to read any of your details.

You will be able to tell whether or not a page is secure as 'https' will replace the 'http' at the beginning of the web address in your browser address window. Also, a small padlock will appear in the bottom bar of your browser window or in your top menu bar next to the URL.

Your information is then held in an encrypted format until your transactions is authorised. Finally, all orders are processed with UK banks using secure, offline channels.

If you still have questions about our security, please call 01225 484998.
