At Green Mountain Ski Furniture, above all else, we value our customers and we understand your concerns about personal privacy and security.  Because we know that your privacy is very important, we have instituted practices intended to ensure that your personal information is always respected and handled in a safe and responsible manner. 

 

Any personal and private information you provide to us through our website, email, or personal contact for inquiries or sales, is only used by GMSF to better serve you and retained for our company records.  Nothing is ever passed along to any third party or sold.

 

 

Credit Card Transactions:  Your name, mailing and billing address, phone number, dollar amounts, and card numbers are needed to confirm approval by our payment gateway provider for all credit card transactions.  Protecting the safety of your personal information, such as your credit card information, is important to us and we use a variety of technical, administrative, and physical safeguards so that you can enjoy your shopping experience without having to worry about loss, misuse, or unauthorized access to your information.

 

On-Line Security: Any on-line purchases from GMSF are made through PayPal’s secure website or Etsy’s secure checkout system.  Your sensitive credit information is handled through their secure servers and not passed on to the retailer.  For your protection, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL Encryption) technology should be used to encrypt your credit card information you send over the internet.  The best and easiest way to check for yourself if this technology is being used, is to see if the web address on the page that asks for your credit card information begins with "https:" instead of "http:"; if so, this technology is in place.  Please note that e-mail is not encrypted and is not considered a secure means of transmitting credit card numbers.
