Is my information secure?

Protecting your advertising order information is important to us. ozcosmetics.com uses PayPal's Internet Payment Gateway to provide a secure environment for the authorisation of credit card transactions over the internet. Confidential information including client credit card details are encrypted the moment they are transmitted from the clients browser to the banking network using industry standard SSL (Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology) 128-bit RC4 encryption technology.

A clients credit card details are not stored anywhere on the internet and the only company who has access to this data is the merchants bank. The bank also sends confirmation information via the same encryption technology back to the clients browser. These secure processes provide clients with peace of mind when purchasing on line.

Some versions of browser and some firewalls do not permit communication through secure servers like the ones we use to process orders at ozcosmetics.com. To check the security of your connection, look at the lower left hand corner of your browser window after accessing the server. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock (depending on your browser), then SSL is active. You can also double check by looking at the URL line of your browser. When accessing a secure server, the first characters of the site address will change from "http" to "https".

If your browser of firewall doesn't support SSL you will not be able to connect to the server, which means you wont be able to mistakenly place an order through an unsecured connection. If you cannot access the secure server for any reason, please contact us.
