(such as credit card number and/or social security number), that information
is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry
- SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the
bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet
Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just
'surfing'. To learn more about SSL consult the documentation for your web
browser for details on it's particular SSL support, and how to tell if it's
working.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we
also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All
of our users' information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above,
is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to
perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service
representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information.
Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy
practices. Every quarter, as well as any time new policies are added, our
employees are notified and/or reminded about the importance we place on privacy,
and what they can do to ensure our customers' information is protected. The
servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept in
a secure environment. Jacar Enterprises, LLC resides on a set of dedicated
servers that are owned and operated by us and we take every effort to make
