Data protection

CARSTENS uses secure technology:
Our secure server software SSL is one of the best in the area of secure online business. Our secure server software encodes all of your personal data, such as your credit card number, bank code, bank account number, name and address. According to the present state of knowledge, this encoded information cannot be read by unauthorised persons while being transmitted over the Internet. The encoding system converts the characters entered by you into a code that can be transmitted securely over the Internet.

What information does CARSTENS collect and how is it used?

• When you place an order with us, we must request your name, e-mail address, shipping address, and either your bank code and account number or your credit card number and credit card expiry date. This is necessary so that we can process and execute your order.
  
• Insofar as the data is processed in our firm for technical or legal reasons, we will use appropriate measures to guarantee that the data protection rights of our customers are fully respected.

How does CARSTENS protect customer information?
We use a secure transmission process, Secure Socket Layer (SSL) transmission, in order to handle customer data. All information transmitted using this secure method is encoded before being sent to us.

CARSTENS attaches top priority to your security!
