Is our web site secure?

Yes! We take Internet security very seriously.
The Costume Market makes every effort to maintain customer confidentiality when securing an online payment. This includes ensuring the security of your credit card details and other personal information.

All of your personal information is encrypted as it travels over the Internet.

The Costume Market considers your privacy to be of the utmost importance, and is governed by the UK Data Protection Act 1998.

Our commitment to Internet shopping is the use of the Thawte Digital Certificate. Whenever you enter personal data into a web page. At such a point and normally at the checkout process, when you see the http:// web site prefix in your browser change to https:// and a little padlock appear in the bottom right hand corner, you can be assured that any data that passes between your web browser and this site is encrypted with a Thawte Digital certificate. The padlock should be in a locked position when any data is sent from your browser to our web site at the checkout or Paypal servers.

Contrary to media hysteria, you have more rights as a consumer purchasing online and our deployed systems are more secure than giving your credit card to a High Street shop or restaurant.
