SECURITY GUIDELINES

At ‘Checkout’ any information you enter is encoded to prevent anybody else accessing your payment details. Our site uses Thawte SSL Web Server Certificates. When you are in the secure section of the site, a padlock symbol should appear in your browser. This will either appear at the bottom of your browser, or to the right of the address bar at the top.

When this symbol appears, you can be assured that the site security is in place. For more detailed information on our site security, please click on the “Thawte Secure Site” link at the bottom right-hand side of every page.

Cotton Traders is fully compliant with the 1998 Data Protection Act and the 2003 Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations. We will take all reasonable steps to keep your data secure. For more about our privacy policy, please click here.

We will shortly be adding an extra security measure for customers using payment cards from Visa and MasterCard. This will allow you to confirm your identity before purchase as a protection from unauthorised use of your credit or debit card when shopping online. For more details, please visit Visa or MasterCard online.
