Protection of information being transmitted

Another line of defense is our use of the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) 128-bit encryption, the industry standard and best available secure transaction technology. This technology lets you select "secured" or "unsecured" shopping. If your browser is capable of SSL, you should use the "secured" option, which means all sensitive information will be encrypted before being sent over the Internet.
Your transactions are secure from unauthorized access (SSL is supported by Netscape 2.0+, Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0+, and most frames-enabled browsers). When you begin a transaction, the rest of your visit will take place on our secure server. Every secure page on our web site has been secured with a digital certificate by Equifax Secure, Inc. This is shown via the "site certificate" that is resident on all secure pages.
