Security

Security is extremely important to us and we have numerous security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse or alteration of information that we have collected from you.

When you proceed to the Checkout you enter a "secure environment" and all information that passes between your computer and our server is encrypted. Credit/debit card data is used only to take payment for the products you are purchasing and is never stored by Niki Gorick.

Payment Service Provider

The credit/debit card transactions are handled by a company called Protx who operarate under the following security policies:

The Protx payment system uses a combination of established and innovative techniques to ensure the security and integrity of all sensitive data. Our internet facing web servers are certified by Verisign, this ensures that no third parties can impersonate Protx to obtain secure information.

Transaction Security

The transfer of the less sensitive transaction details from the retailer’s site to Protx is encrypted and digitally-signed. This ensures that the information passed is secure and tamper-proof.

Security for the Shopper

Any communication between the customer and Protx is encrypted to the maximum strength supported by the customer’s browser. The customer is also protected from fraudulent use of their card in a "card not present" environment, by their card issuer.

Data Storage

All data stored on Protx systems is held on encrypted and highly secured databases. Protx are regularly audited by Visa and MasterCard to ensure that their systems conform to the latest security standards.
