We use Sagepay for our secure payment transactions. Thousands of businesses outsource their transaction security to Sagepay. It is their and our top priority to ensure that your transaction data is kept secure at all times.
 
Transaction security
 
All transaction information passed between our site and Sage Pays systems is encrypted using 128-bit SSL certificates. No cardholder information is ever passed unencrypted and any messages sent to you from Sage Pay is signed using MD5 hashing to prevent tampering. You can be completely assured that nothing you pass to Sage Pays servers can be examined, used or modified by any third parties attempting to gain access to sensitive information.
 
Encryption and Data Storage
 
Once on their systems, all sensitive data is secured using the same internationally recognised 256-bit encryption standards used by, among others, the US Government. The encryption keys are held on state-of-the-art, tamper proof systems in the same family as those used to secure VeriSign's Global Root certificate, making them all but impossible to extract. The data they hold is extremely secure and they are regularly audited by the banks and banking authorities to ensure it remains so.
