HOW TO CONTACT US





We offer secure online payment through Yahoo! Store accepting Visa, MasterCard, Diners Club, and Yahoo! Wallet. We also offer payment through PayPal with Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and E-Check. All online transactions through Yahoo! Store are handled with industry-standard, 128-bit, SSL encryption.

When you enter your credit card number into the order form, it is transmitted in an encrypted (scrambled) form, then decoded when it gets to us. It is deleted from the Yahoo! Store database after 30 days.

According to CNN, "...on-line credit card use is actually no riskier for consumers than traditional "low-tech" transactions."

We order products online all the time, both as a company and as individuals. When we use a credit card to buy something online, we feel at least as safe as we would using one in a store or restaurant and much safer than ordering by phone.

Your credit card information is transferred to us using Yahoo's secure servers, and is automatically deleted from our system 30 days after our business is concluded.



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.



Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our website from those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 13.



Should you have other questions or concerns about these privacy policies, please contact us by clicking on the "Email" link in the menu bar at the top of this page.
