Security

Chic By Design utilizes the latest technology for shopping and e-commerce security through PayPal. All transactions are transmitted over secure Internet connections using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption technology. PayPal ensures that all of your personal information including your credit card information and sign-in password are stored in encrypted format at all times.

To ensure that your PayPal connection is secure, look at the lower left-hand corner of your browser window after accessing the server. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock (depending on your browser), then SSL is active and the server is secure. You can also double-check by looking at the web address (URL) window of your browser. When accessing a secure server, the first characters of the site address will change from “http” to “https”.
