Is it safe to use my credit card number over the
Internet?
If you are going to use your credit card on the web, you
want to be sure that the web site uses the latest encryption technology. Sites
such as the SLACK Incorporated web site employ the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL),
the industry standard in online encryption, to safeguard your sensitive
information. SSL translates all your personal information, including your name,
address, and credit card number, into tiny bits of code that cannot be read by
other parties. Secure sites place a small icon of a lock in the bottom right
corner of your web browser for quick identification.
For additional safety, unless you have previously disabled it,
a message box will pop up when you first enter a secure site. If you would like
more information about the level of security that the web site provides, click
on the [More info] button in this message box. By clicking on this button, it
will bring you to a help screen containing details about the security on the
site.
*Note: If you have Netscape as your web browser, the lock icon
will appear at the top of the browser, and clicking on the lock will show you
the security information.
