Protx is encrypted and digitally-signed. This ensures that the information passed
is secure and tamper-proof.

Security for the Shopper

Any communication between the customer and Protx is encrypted to the
maximum strength supported by the customer's browser. The customer is also
protected from fraudulent use of their card in a "card not present" environment,
by their card issuer.

databases. Protx are regularly audited by Visa and MasterCard to ensure that
