Security Statement

Secure Transactions

Making a donation or paying for a CRU Camp online is designed to be as simple as possible, while allowing maximum security and privacy for all your details.

Our secure server software (SSL) is the industry standard and is the best software available today for secure commerce transactions. It encrypts all of your personal information including credit card number, name and address so that it cannot be read as the information travels over the internet.

You can donate or purchase with complete confidence . We have taken every possible measure to give you security and confidence in your dealings with us.

We never store your credit card information

At no time do we store your credit card information on our server.

Encryption

The encryption technologies we use are SSL and PGP.

The Process

When you select “Pay Now” on the Payment Page your web browser will redirect to CAS Connect, Card Access Services’ Secure Web Servers, which use 128-bit SSL encryption to secure transmission of your credit card details before submitting them to the CAS Payment Gateway for payment authorisation.

When you are ready to make payment and select “Pay Now” on our web site, your browser will be redirected to the CAS Connect Secure web server pages. On the CAS servers you will navigate through a series of screens that collectively retrieve credit card details, submit them to the bank and retrieves the result.

Hack-Proof

The payment flow consists of a multi-step process that makes it impossible for you to accidentally double submit transactions, is impervious to “hacking” or tampering with payment parameters, and is immune to refresh/back presses from impatient customers, even when a transaction is in progress.

On completion of the transaction, you will be presented with a link that will return you to Crusaders’ website.

Secure Sockets Layers

Secure Sockets Layer technology (SSL) ensures your online shopping experience is safe, sound and secure at all times.

SSL locks all information passed from you to Card Access Services website in an encrypted envelope. This makes it almost impossible to be intercepted by an unauthorised party, as long as your browser and local network support the use of encrypted data transmissions.

SSL is the system that is used by all reputable e-commerce sites. The industry standard for encryption technology, SSL, is compatible with Netscape, Internet Explorer, AOL, Web TV and most other web browsers.

The following indicates that you have entered a secure session and will be present when you are requested to enter your credit card details:

  • the “https” in place of the usual “http” in your browser address box
  • the small padlock at the foot of your browser
