MyGardenGifts.com is committed to the security of information collected on our website. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.
Electronic Security
Private account information is located behind a firewall; it is not directly connected to the Internet. Information behind the firewall on the customer server is not available to unauthorized computers. We have engaged a firewall that is recognized and accepted as industry standard.
Cookies
At MyGardenGifts.com we may use cookies to help us provide you with a fast, convenient shopping experience at our online store. A cookie is a data element a website sends to your browser. It is stored on your computer hard drive and tells a website that a previous visitor has returned. It doesn't automatically give personal information about you, like your e-mail address or name.
If you want to give us personal information through registration, then a cookie will help us deliver content based on your interests and preferences. Cookies also help us monitor whether our websites are functioning properly and to perform site traffic analysis as outline in earlier sections.
Encryption
Encryption is a process by which we use software to scramble sensitive information while it is in transit to MyGardenGifts.com. We use Secure Socket Layering (SSL). SSL technology is the industry standard for secure online transactions. It is based on a key that has two different parts: public and private.
The public part of the key is distributed to those you want to communicate with. The private part is for recipients' use only. When you send personal information to us, you use our public key to encrypt your personal information. That means if your information is intercepted during the transmission, it is scrambled and very difficult to decrypt. Once we receive your encrypted personal information, we use the private part of our key to decode it.
Making a credit card purchase online at MyGardenGifts.com is just as safe as making a credit card purchase over the telephone. However, if you would prefer to fax your order to us, please contact customer service at csr@MyGardenGifts.com and we will gladly send you a Fax order Form.
