Is it safe to use my credit card?

We (The Northerner) are a certified Internet Secure Merchant:
We know you're concerned about security, and we hope this will answer some of the most common questions about what we're doing to protect you.

In an article by Tom Foremski about Electronic Commerce in The Financial Times (September 3rd 1997), experts say the risk of credit card details being intercepted on the Internet are less than the risk cardholders run today when they give card details over the phone or hand a card to a waiter in a restaurant. Credit card companies already protect users from unauthorised charges on their accounts, regardless of whether the card is used on the Internet or for a more conventional transaction.

We think that's good news, but we still take every possible precaution to protect the integrity of your credit card information.
We (The Northerner) are a certified Internet Secure Merchant:




Internet Secure Inc have been approved by three of the top six Canadian banks to provide secure, online, real-time credit card processing for certified Internet merchants. All credit cards presented to InternetSecure will be securely directed to the financial institution who issued the credit card, anywhere in the world. The cardholder will be notified of approval or decline within 26 to 36 seconds. In order for a merchant to be certified with InternetSecure Inc to accept credit cards, they require all merchants to adhere to all of InternetSecure Inc´s security and business ethics requirements. Once certified, they continually monitor all merchants on an ongoing basis to ensure compliance.
