Security We are very much aware of Internet users' concerns about security. Gadget Hub Canada maintains a secure web site. Our site and all our customers' information reside on our in-house server, behind our firewall. Online ordering is secure provided that your browser can support secure transactions (most browsers support this facility). You can determine when you are in a secure environment by locating the key (Netscape browsers) or lock (Microsoft browsers) symbol at the bottom of the browser page. When the key or lock is complete, the information provided by you is encrypted, restricting access by anyone else. If your browser does not support secure transactions, there is a chance that others may view any information that you send. You can check your browser's help button to learn more about secure transaction support. Gadget Hub Canada realizes that you may have concerns about giving out credit card information online and we take the security of your transactions very seriously. We have taken steps so that Gadget Hub Canada users can feel just as confident giving out credit card information online as they do on the phone, or anywhere else a credit card may be used. We utilize Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, the industry standard for transferring sensitive information over the Internet. When users enter their credit card information online, it is encrypted to restrict unauthorized access. We use CyberCash as our credit card processing agent and they employ a 150-point fraud screen process that uses artificial intelligence methods to help prevent unauthorized purchases from being made on your credit card. Opt-In/Opt-Out Upon receipt of any advertised email material from Gadget Hub Canada, customers can Opt-Out by indicating that they do not wish to receive any promotional emails by updating their Account information. To do this, simply log into your Account using the "My Account" feature, and select the "update your contact information" option and activate the "Do not send email specials". The opposite is true if you want to Opt-In.
