Security of your personal data

Internet traffic between this website and your browser is encrypted and transferred via the HTTPS protocol using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer).

We are committed to keeping your personal data secure as well as online transactions. We contractually require any trusted third party that handles your personal data on our behalf to do exactly the same.

The Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol is the global benchmark today for authenticating websites to users and for encrypting data between users and web servers. An encrypted SSL communication involves a process whereby information sent from a user to a server is encrypted by the sending software and decrypted only by the receiving software, thus protecting the information during transmission. In addition, all information sent using the SSL protocol is also protected by a mechanism that automatically verifies whether the data has been changed during transmission. In this way we are able to encrypt all your personal information, so that third parties cannot interfere with it during its transmission over the Internet. Each time you enter a page where a data or personal information transaction is to be made, a padlock is displayed on your screen, confirming that your transaction is protected.

The online store in no way discloses or makes public the personal data and information of Users. Personal data is used exclusively for the proper execution of transactions. All information is encrypted with absolute security.
