HOW SINDUDAVILLAS.COM PROTECTS YOUR CUSTOMER INFORMATION
As sindudavillas.com is concerned about your privacy, we have implemented the following systems to safeguard your personal information.
SECURE CONNECTIONS
Sindudavillas.com has partnered with "PayPal.com", a global leader in Credit Card payment processing to provide you with a secure connection during the payment process, which means that information is encrypted before it is sent over the Internet between your computer and the payment processing computers. You can verify that the connection is secure because you will see a key or a padlock at the bottom of your browser that indicates a secure connection. Another identifier of a secure connection is the URL (or web site address): the address will change from "http://" to "https://" when a secure connection is in place.
Once your information arrives at the payment processing center, your account number(s) are stored in encrypted files on a machine that is separated from the site's Internet connection by a firewall. This firewall is designed to protect information from anyone viewing, stealing or otherwise accessing. Both processing companies use commercially reasonable technological means to prevent occurrences of third party access.
DISCLOSURE TO EXTERNAL PARTIES
Sindudavillas.com will not distribute, sell, or rent your name or e-mail address (or any other personal information) to any third parties. If you send us a check or use one of our online payment services, the information you give, such as your credit card number, checking account number, and contact information, will of course be provided to our bank and your bank but this is only to complete the financial transaction.
Sindudavillas.com and/or our online payment services may release information when required to do so by law, for example, under a subpoena, court order or regulatory requirement.
PROTECTION OF PRIVACY OF CHILDREN YOUNGER THAN 13
Sindudavillas.com does not target children and does not expect to sell any of its services to children.
