Security
All online transactions at Menemsha Blues are handled with
industry-standard SSL encryption.
When you enter your credit card number into the order form,
it is transmitted across the Internet in an encrypted (scrambled)
form, then decoded when it gets to us.
For added security, we also encrypt the credit card number
when it is stored on disk, and when we review your order.
If you are not the kind of person who worries about being
hit by lightning as you're crossing the street, you probably
don't have to worry that your credit card number will be
intercepted on the way to a secure Web site. According to
CNN, "The prevalent opinion...is that on-line credit card
use is actually no riskier for consumers than traditional
"low-tech" transactions." We order products online all the
time, both as a company and as individuals. When we use
a credit card to buy something online, we feel at least
as safe as we would using one in a store or restaurant.
