Welcome to the Safer Online Shopping website. We are here to help you buy online in confidence. These are the things you need to bear in mind in order to ensure your safety. Firstly, always go for secure websites. Secure websites use technologies such as SSL (Secure Socket Layer) or SET (Secure Electronic Transmission). Secure websites always use encryption technique for the information interchange between the shopper and merchant. If a shopper is not technical or is unaware of the terms SSL & SET they can still find out which site is secure by being aware of the following.
First look at the top of website where you put the URL. If a website is using https:// then the 's' in https denotes that website is secure. The second way to determine if a website is secure is to look for a closed padlock icon displayed at the bottom of the screen. If that lock is open, assume it is not a secure site.
When you place any order then you must take a print out of that order and that print out should cover details like cost of your order, your customer information, product information, and the confirmation number. You may also take print out of another page that shows company name, postal address, phone number, legal terms and return policy. Keep it for your own records for at least the period covered by return/warranty policy.
