1 WE RESPECT YOUR PRIVACY!
We respect your privacy. Your privacy is very important to us and you can be
assured that our privacy practices are held to high standards. Triple Deal's
Mission Statement is to provide the Internet Community with reliable, convenient
and affordable systems for safe trading and secure paying. Trust is one of the
cornerstones of this Privacy Policy and our products and services. We feel that
it is important to trust the parties and the transaction system when doing business
on the internet. And therefore we value a high degree of privacy in our operations.
As part of the normal operation of our services we collect some information about
you. This Privacy Policy describes the information we collect about you and what
may happen to that information. We comply to simple and effective rules of thumb
that protect your privacy:
- Any and all information collected at our site will be kept strictly
confidential and will not be sold, reused, rented, loaned,
or otherwise disclosed.
- Any information you give to Triple Deal will be held with the utmost
care, and will not be used in ways that you have not consented to.
- We strive to improve our privacy policy continuously, according to
our customers' requirements, legal obligations, and recommendations
by leading institutions and our own organization philosophy.
To underline our efforts to make our services safe, we are a member of The Safe
Internet Foundation (www.sif.nl). In our Privacy Policy, we will follow the
guidelines from the Online Privacy Alliance (www.privacyalliance.org).
A more detailed explanation about how we safeguard your personal information
is described below.
1.1 A NOTE ON PRIVACY AND INFORMATION SECURITY
We also like to point out that to all information, information systems and data
communication facilities the Triple Deal security policy applies. In short, we
take every state-of-the-art precaution to protect our users' information.
When the wizards on our site asks users to enter sensitive information (such as
your credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with SSL
(Secure Socket Layer) or SET (Secure Encrypted Transaction). While on a secure page,
such as all Triple Deal Payment Services pages, the lock icon on the bottom of Web
browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked,
as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just surfing. We use security technology
to prevent our computers from being accessed by unauthorized persons.
We train all of our employees about the importance of privacy, giving them access
to information about customers and Merchants only to those who require it to perform
their jobs. If you have any questions about the security of the Triple Deal Payment
Service, you can send an email to
[email protected]. We will not reveal our technical details, but
we will be able to elaborate about our norms and controls. Although our Security Policy
does not specifically address your privacy issues, we use it as our Guidelines for insuring
the important information security issues. That way we strive to guarantee:
- The confidentiality of our information processing, meaning that no other
person than the one(s) authorised have access to certain information.
- The integrity of our information processing, meaning that the validity
of information is ensured and that data pass through our systems and
organization unmodified.
- The availability of our information processing, meaning that information
is available to (only) the right user at the right time.
Combining our commitment to privacy protection with 'the CIA of information security'
(i.e. confidentiality, integrity and availability), we feel that we can provide a solid
basis for safe trading and secure payments.
