Secure Online Shopping Tips

Only buy at secure websites

Make sure the website you are purchasing from uses SSL. SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a technology for encoding information transmitted over the Internet. This technology supports data encryption.

Encryption is the transformation of a message into an incomprehensible form by a key. Its purpose is to ensure privacy by keeping information hidden from anyone for whom it is not intended, even those who have access to the encrypted data. Decryption is the reverse of encryption; it is the transformation of encrypted data back into an incomprehensible form by the corresponding key.

Check out privacy policies before buying

Many companies with privacy practices post their privacy policy on their Web sites. A company's privacy policy should disclose what information is being collected on the Web site and how that information is being used. Before you provide a company with personal information, check its privacy policy. If you can't find a policy, send an email or written message to the Web site to ask about its policy and request that it be posted on the site.

Keep your password private

We recommend that you do not disclose your password to anyone. The company should never ask for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited email. Also remember to sign out of your account and close your browser window when you have finished your work. This is to ensure that others cannot access your personal information and correspondence if you share a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place like a library or Internet cafe.

Keep a record

Be sure to print or save a copy of your purchase order and confirmation number for your records.
