HOW SECURE IS MY PERSONAL INFORMATION?
We adhere to the highest security standards to protect your personal information when you enter the checkout page and purchase from our online store.
When purchasing online using your credit card, all of your information is entered into an SSL-secure web page. Your information is then SSL-encrypted and sent directly to our credit card provider's network, where your card and transaction are authorized and approved. Your credit card information is not stored on our servers.
WHAT IS THE PROCESS FOR QUALITY ASSURANCE?
We collaborate with leading manufacturers who can ensure the superior quality of each package by taking everything into account and doing a last check before sending the entire order to you.
Our QA specialists follow specific criteria for each type of product based on the recognized problems and characteristics of each product.
After that, we will fill out the testing form with these criteria, rate each component on a scale of 1 to 5 (poor quality to great quality), and make notes.
Every single product must pass this testing process and have a minimum score of 80 to be packaged and sent to you.
