How Secure is My Information?
Protecting your personal information: We use Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL 128-bit) encryption to scramble your personal and
credit card information as it travels over the Internet
during the checkout process on SpindleCo.com.

know you're in a "secure" area of our site when you see a
logo notifying you that the page is secure. Notice that the
"http" portion of the web site address in your browser
changes to "https." The "s" stands for "secure." In
addition, both Netscape and Internet Explorer use special
symbols to indicate that you're in a web site's secure area.
Earlier versions of Netscape use a highlighted key. More
recent versions of Netscape and all versions of Internet

you know that you're moving in or out of a secure area by
notifying you with a special pop-up window that requires you
to click "ok" before continuing.
