Why Buy From Artwalk Tile?

• Artwalk Tile Order Security

  Artwalk Tile utilizes the industry-standard SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption protocol to safeguard your transaction. SSL provides for a secure communications network safe from eavesdropping, and for the authentication of the server and the client. After credit card information is encrypted for transmission, the SSLHP (SSL Handshake Protocol) performs a security check and authentication before the transaction is completed. If the system fails to authenticate, the session connection is immediately aborted.

  Most experts agree that credit card transactions over the Internet are the safest of all common credit card purchases. The National Credit Information Network confirms that most Internet fraud involves people presenting merchants with stolen cards, not people stealing credit card information from the Internet.

  Internet commerce is fast becoming the preferred method of shopping for quality, variety and price. The SSL Protocol used by Artwalk Tile assures that your shopping experience is secure and confidential.
