Protection of your personal data, and maintaining your privacy, is your right and our responsibility. We take this matter very seriously, which is why we use not one, but several measures to ensure an absolutely safe shopping experience. You can shop in confidence knowing that GedolimPortraits.com is taking many precautions to help keep your personal information secure.

PCI Compliance (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards)

The major credit card issuers created PCI (Payment Card Industry) compliance standards to protect personal information and ensure security when transactions are processed using a payment card. GedolimPortraits.com is careful to comply with these strict security standards. 

In order to be fully compliant, GedolimPortraits.com conforms to the following six CPI requirements:

1. Build and maintain a secure network
2. Protect cardholder data
3. Maintain a vulnerability management program
4. Implement strong access control measures
5. Regularly monitor and test networks
6. Maintain an information security policy

Encryption Security and SSL

Our secure server utilizes advanced data encryption to protect your privacy. When you submit your order, your personal information is encrypted to help prevent others from intercepting this data. All online transactions through our website are secured with industry-standard 2048 bit SSL encryption. This means that when you enter your credit card number into our shopping cart and you press the purchase button, your information goes through a highly secure encryption process which prevents any person on the Internet from seeing your information. Within just a few seconds, it reaches our credit card authorization server and is quickly authorized without any human intervention. As surprising as it may seem, this process is considerably safer than giving your credit card to a waiter at a restaurant.

Secure Credit Card Processing Using Authorize.Net

We have partnered with Authorize.Net, a leading payment gateway since 1996, to offer safe and secure credit card and electronic check transactions for our customers. The Authorize.Net Payment Gateway manages the complex routing of sensitive customer information through the credit card and electronic check processing networks. The company adheres to strict industry standards for payment processing.

For additional information regarding the privacy of your sensitive cardholder data, please read the Authorize.Net Privacy Policy.

We Do Not Save Your Credit Card Number

We never save your credit card number. Once you submit your order, your credit card number is simply passed along, via secure, SSL encryption, to the credit card processor's secure processors.  

While some customers might prefer the convenience of not having to re-enter their credit card number, for maximum security we have confirmed to the PCI preferred practice of not saving this sensitive data.
