Secure Transactions

Birthdaypartysupply.us with its affiliates uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to ensure your orders are transmitted safely over the Web. Without getting too technical, SSL translates all the information you send to us into an indecipherable code right within the browser on your computer.

Your credit card number is encrypted and transmitted to Cyber cash using up to 256-bit SSL technology. It transmits approval (but not the credit card number) over the Web to our merchant. Each part of the information sent over the Web is assigned a separate encryption key; thus, each transmission is scrambled in a different way. All transmissions over the Web are sent as a series of small packets so that not all information is transmitted at the same instant. It would be extremely difficult for anyone to identify an encrypted packet as a credit card charge and decipher it.

To date, not one single transmission over the Web has been intercepted when this technology has been used.

How do I know if a web site is secure?

When buying something on the Internet, there are three things to ensure:

1. The data that you send is encrypted.

2. The site you're doing business with is the site you think it is.

3. The site you're doing business which processes your credit card and address information in a safe and responsible manner.

The first two items above are taken care of by Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), the industry standard security protocol that our affiliate merchants use. Critical data transmitted to and from a secure server like ours is encrypted. You don't have to know whether your browser supports secure transactions -- if it doesn't, you won't be able to complete the checkout process.

Many security experts say the most important thing is what happens once the merchant receives your order. Several steps are taken to keep things on our end as safe as possible. Orders are encrypted until they're ready to be processed. All ordering is processed on Cyber cash servers, which are not connected to the Internet, so there's no danger of people gaining access to them.

If a "warning" window (depending on your configuration) comes up, what does it mean?

The browser is notifying you about entering or leaving a secure area on our Web site. Critical information and credit card transactions are only handled in secure areas. As long as your browser shows its "secure mode symbol," we guarantee it's safe to send us your private information. If you want to, you can disable this warning.
