PAYMENTSWhile paying in our online store, you are using Stripe (See: https://stripe.com/en-hu/privacy and https://stripe.com/docs/security), an advanced system for secure online card payment. Stripe ensures complete secrecy of your card details from the moment you fill them in the Stripe payment form.

Your information is coded and forwarded to the bank that issued your card. Our store never has access to your full card information. The information is inaccessible to the employees of Stripe as well. The isolated core singlehandedly transfers and handles sensitive information, all the while keeping them secure. The form to fill in your card information is secured with an SSL transport code of the highest confidentiality level. Stripe fulfils all the requirements relating to the security of online payment as prescribed by leading card brands, i.e. in line with the PCI Service Provider Level 1 norm – the highest security standard from the payment card industry. By paying with cards that are sorted into the 3D Secure program, your bank must, along with card validity, confirm your identity using a token or a password. Stripe treats all the collected information a bank secret and handles them accordingly.

The information is used exclusively for the purpose it is meant for. Your sensitive details are completely secure, and their privacy is guaranteed by the utmost modern security mechanisms. Only the information needed to complete the job in line with the required requested procedures for online payment is collected. Security controls and operative procedures applied to our infrastructure ensure the reliability of the payment system. Along with that, by keeping up strict access control, frequent security monitoring and in-depth check-ups to avoid the vulnerability of the network, as well as with a planned implementation of information security regulations, the degree of security of the system to protect your card details is permanently kept up and improved.
