Information on SSL

How are my order details protected from prying eyes and manipulation by third parties during transmission?

Your order data are transmitted to us using 128-bit SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption. This technique is currently regarded as secure and is also used by some banks for online banking.

How can I check that the data are actually transmitted encrypted?

When entering your personal details right-click on the order form and select "Properties" (Internet Explorer) or "View Page Info - Security" (Netscape/Mozilla) and view the information on encryption.

My browser (Internet Explorer) shows that only 40- or 56-bit encryption is used, and not 128-bit. What can I do?

Some older browsers do not support high encryption. Please install the latest version of your browser and/or install the updates from the browser manufacturer.
