2. ONLINE SECURITY & PAYMENT METHODS

 

Rooster Sailing realise that one of the greatest worries that people have about purchasing on the web is that of security. This is why we have invested much time and money in the best possible systems to ensure that your data remains safe. 

'Hacking' is a term used to describe the action of individuals or programs to 'break in' to computer systems with the aim of either stealing information or taking control of that system. Hacking exploits vulnerabilities caused either by bad programming or 'bad practice' in the basic set-up of the system. The Rooster Sailing Website is scanned on a daily basis by a specialist independent outside company to certify that we maintain a high level of website safety standards and good business practices. 

This website is secured using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) technology. Imagine sending a letter through the post in a transparent envelope. Anyone with access to it can see the data. If it looks valuable, they might take it or change it. An SSL Certificate establishes a private communication channel enabling encryption of the data during transmission. Encryption scrambles the data, essentially creating an envelope for message privacy.  

We also offer secure payment options - You can choose to pay using PayPal or use the on-line payment gateway to pay by Credit/Debit Card. Our payment gateway is provided by Braintree; they are a global company providing secure credit card and debit card payment solutions for thousands of businesses across the UK. Braintree solely handles your card details on their secure server where they run extensive security checks and obtain card authorisation. Payments are taken at the time of processing your order on the website.  

We use Cardinal Commerce in order to check your payment. This is known as PSD2 (3D Secure) check. This sits between our website provider Shopify and our payment gateway provider Braintree. This ensures a greater level of protection for the processing of your payment and ensures we are processing your payments in line with current legislation.
