The Trailhead cares about your security. The TheTrailheadCo.com
website has security measures in place to protect the loss,
misuse and alteration of the information under our control.
Every purchase you make at outhParkCity.org is safe. Our
website uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), the industry standard
for secure commerce transactions to transmit your credit
card information over the Internet.
Our website protects your personal information in the following ways:
- Secure Order Form:
During the check out process, when you are asked for
your credit card information to pay for your order, your
credit card information is communicated over the internet
in an encrypted method of communication using Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL). This means your credit card number
is scrambled during the transaction process, so that
the information cannot be read as it travels over the
Internet. You will know that the page is encrypted by
the following:
Our
secure pages carry the VeriSign Seal (similar
to the image at the right), certifying that our
website provider participates in the VeriSign Secured
Seal program. VeriSign is a third-party company
that has become a trusted "Internet Standard" in
authenticating e-commerce hosting providers.
- Most web-browsers will also notify you that a
page is secure in different ways. Most browsers
will notify you as you enter and leave a secure
page. Also when on a secure page, most browsers
will display a "padlock" icon, (similar
to this one
,)
which lets you know that the information on the
current page is secure.
- Secure Data Storage: Any
sensitive information such as your The Trailhead account
password are stored on our secure servers in an encrypted
format to further protect your information. Depending
on the order approval method we use for the products
you order, your credit card info may or may not be stored
on our servers. For your protection however, your credit
card info is NEVER stored with your account information
on our servers. If a product's payment approval method
requires it, your credit information for a specific order
may be temporarily stored in an encrypted and secure
orders database on our server. We frequently purge (delete)
the credit card numbers on processed orders to further
protect your information.
