Purchasing online from Coldforged USA:

There is much fear and concern over the use of credit cards for purchasing goods and services over the internet. Credit Card fraud is big business. The most popular way for this kind of fraud to take place is by a merchant storing a credit card number in a database on a computer that is directly connected to the internet. The following guidelines are the measures we are taking to reduce this important concern you may have.

How to be sure that you are conducting your purchase over a secure internet connection to our web site:

Ordering online at Coldforged USA is safe and easy! Protecting your order information is a priority, so we use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. SSL encrypts ALL of your personal information including credit card number name and address to avoid the decoding of that information by anyone other than Coldforged USA. If you are using a Netscape browser, check the security of your connection by looking at the lower left-hand corner of your browser window after accessing the server. For Internet Explorer, check the little boxes near the lower right-hand corner. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock (depending upon 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".

Additional measures that we take to ensure additional security:

• We will not store your credit card number on any computer directly connected to the internet. Once your transaction has been placed, we verify the information, which then automatically deletes the sensitive information - thus protecting you. This will result in your having to enter your CC# each time you order from us, but we feel it is a small price to pay for security reasons.
• We do not sell, nor will we sell any information about you. We see the internet as a way to provide a service to our customers, not a way to exploit them. We want to treat you the same way we want to be treated.
• If you have any reservations about purchasing online with us, please feel free to call us and we will take your order over the phone at (714) 921-9181 or (714) 921-9188 - No questions asked.
