ARTICLE 2.  SECURITY

The Site is subject to a security system (SSL encryption process, reinforcement of scrambling and encryption processes) aimed at protecting all sensitive data linked to payment methods as effectively as possible.

 

Bank details are transmitted in one go when paying by credit card online. This transmission is carried out in a secure manner thanks to data encryption using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology. As soon as the Client chooses the credit card payment method and connects to a page using this protocol, the following dialogue box is automatically displayed.

 

At any time, the Client can check that he is on a secure page by observing the address of the page and the status bar displayed at the bottom of the browser window. The address of a page secured by the SSL protocol begins with a padlock followed by https and not by http (the letter "s" is added).

 

Finally, when the Client leaves the secure page, a new dialogue box warns him, unless he has set his browser to block this display.
