Security

This site was developed to support on-line purchasing through Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. In order for SSL security to work, you must be using an SSL enabled browser. We recommend using Netscape 3.02 or later, or Microsoft IE 3.02 or later.

When your browser is in secure mode, you will notice an unbroken key or lock at the bottom of the page. You can also tell if you are on a secure page by looking at the URL in the address window of your browser. Most Web addresses start with "http://" if you are on a secure page, the address will begin with "https://" the "s" means secure. Look for these signs before entering sensitive information or credit card information. Your credit card information will not be stored on a computer with access to the internet.

The credit card information is never written to our site or that of our secure shopping cart. All information is encrypted and in partial form only.

BSS is currently only working with Paypal due to Authorize.Net not being acceptable as a provider - since I take great pains to make sure that your information is totally safe - I have stopped taking credit cards through the web site for now.
