DATA SECURITY

www.wix.com uses security procedures for the protection of the processed data, among other things to prevent unauthorized unintentional access to this data. Please visit the following sites for more information: https://www.wix.com/about/privacy and https://www.wix.com/about/terms-of-use

The traffic between your computer and the server of wix is established by means of an SSL certificate (recognizable by the "S" in the url: httpS: // ... .. or the green lock in the address bar). Wix protects your data with all possible means, but due to the public nature of the internet, they cannot always guarantee 100% security of the transfer of information via the internet.

Our internet pages sometimes contain links to other websites.
We are not responsible for the privacy policy and content of those websites, and they are only added for information. We cannot accept responsibility in any way for the content or any other material on these sites, for the use of these sites or for the products and services that are proposed or sold on these websites.
We can therefore not be held responsible in any way for damage, directly or indirectly, caused using our website or of sites linked to ours, regardless of whether or not we have been warned about the possibility of such damage.

PAYMENT ONLINE SHOP

All direct payment gateways offered by Wix.com and used by our company adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers. The Wix Stores checkout process is secured by HTTPS / TLS encryption, and it is safe for customers to purchase from this Wix site. TLS (Transport Layer Security) is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private and secure. TLS is the industry standard and is used by millions of websites in the protection of their online transactions with their customers. Additionally, Wix Stores only works with payment gateways that offer the highest level of security certification (PCI DSS Level 1). For more information about how payment information is encrypted and secured, please contact your chosen payment gateway.
