Submit Securely On-line. The simplest and most popular
means of payment is by sending your credit card information
securely over the Internet.
At ThaiDial.com we use SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) with
a Digital Key from Verisign, Inc. to encrypt all sensitive
customer information being transferred over the Internet.
All information, once on our server, is protected from any
external intrusions. Once your order is processed, we will
not retain your credit card number in our online systems.
It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access
to your password and to your computer. Make sure to sign out
each time when finished using a shared computer. Your credit
card information will be safe when you place an order at ThaiDial.com.
We take necessary steps to pursue all credit card complaints
or disputes. Only ThaiDial.com employees who require personal
information to best serve our customers have access to your
data. This data is password protected with access only to
those selected employees. Those employees are trained in the
privacy and security practices of this Statement.
Whether your browser in SSL or secure mode.
Secured communications on the web require attention to authentication,
encryption and data integrity. All three are addressed by
the SSL protocol. To ensure you are in SSL (Secure Socket
Layer) or secure mode for your transactions, there are certain
items you can check depending on the particular browser you
use. SSL mode is an encryption device that protects your personal
information. Encryption is the process of scrambling data
(through the use of keys and mathematical encoding algorithms)
to prohibit anyone from understanding it if they intercept
the data while it is on its way from your browser to our server.
Encryption protects communications between your browser and
our mainframe system. We have also implemented a fire wall
to protect all of our systems which are not part of the Internet
from intrusion. You can be assured that we strive to protect
your data with the utmost care at all points in the process.
Authentication is the process of establishing confidence that
you are communicating with our web server, as opposed to another
server assuming our identity. SSL accomplishes this through
the use of public/private keys and a digital certificate.
Data Integrity ensures the data passed between your browser
and our server is not being tampered with while in transit.
Many browsers that have a symbol to indicate secure mode below
are a few popular ones.
• Netscape Navigator
Version 4.0 : A lock will appear
on the lower left side of your browser window. If this lock
is open, you are unsecured. If the lock is closed, you are
in a secure transmission mode.
Version 2.0/3.0 : A key will
appear at the lower left side of your browser window. If the
key is broken, you are unsecured. If the key is complete,
you are in a secure transmission mode.
• Microsoft Internet Explorer
A closed lock on the lower right side of the browser window
will indicate a secure transmission mode. If you are unsecured,
the lock will not be present.
• On all browsers
Look for the "http"
to be replaced with "https"
in your browsers location/address window. This indicates that
you are accessing a secure server. A blue border around your
browser's screen is also very common when interacting with
a secure area.
How to shop safely on the Internet
- Use a secure browser. Never consider your information private
unless you are using a browser equipped with a secure mode.
Information on the Internet can be accessed from the time
it leaves your computer to the time it reaches its destination
when not encrypted.
- Always know about the company from whom you are purchasing.
- Do not hesitate to ask questions, including those regarding
how your order is processed and how your information is kept
secure and private. If a company really wants your business,
it will answer these questions.
- If you are unsure of a company, please research the company.
