SECURITY STATEMENT
BodyGestures.com believes in providing a safe and secure shopping experience for all of our customers.
All our online payments are processed through
PayPal's secure website. It is our policy to never send
or request your credit card number via email. In fact, this is a practice we recommend you adopt in all of your Internet activities. If you ever receive an email
appearing to be from Body Gestures requesting or including your credit card number, please contact us
immediately at (858) 248-6116.
We have designed our website so that all online payment information is processed
for us through PayPal. PayPal automatically encrypts your confidential information in transit from your computer to
theirs using the Secure Sockets Layer protocol (SSL) with an encryption key length of 128 bits (the highest level commercially available). Before you even register or log in to
PayPal's site, their server checks that you're using an approved browser - one that uses SSL 3.0 or higher
technology; for example, 3.0 versions or higher of Netscape Navigator and
versions 3.02 or higher of Internet Explorer.
Once your information reaches PayPal, it resides on a server that is heavily guarded both physically and electronically.
PayPal's servers sit behind an electronic firewall and are never directly connected to the Internet, so your private information stays private.
On the Internet, when you see either a
solid key icon or a locked padlock icon at the lower portion of your browser window, this indicates that the
page you are viewing is on a site secured through SSL.
Pages requesting
financial information should always have one of these icons. If you do not see one of these icons
on a page requesting financial information, please
contact us to complete your transaction over the telephone,
if available, or to make other payment arrangements.

Feel free to contact us for any reason if you have any questions or concerns.
