Is your online ordering system safe?
Customer details and security are very important to us. All orders are taken via Secure Hosting's Secure Servers. Secure Hosting specialise in credit card purchasing via the Internet and use the latest 128-bit encryption technology. The credit card number is checked against your address for verification and if there are any discontinuities the transaction will not be authorised. It is so safe that we would recommend people use this service instead of sending credit card details through the post. In addition to these checks we take a random number of our customers and contact them to confirm they have recently placed an order online. In line with our discretion policy we will always introduce ourselves as Simple Elegance and check to ensure it is convenient for you to talk, if it is not convenient to talk give us a time to ring back and we will do so. We will NEVER offer the information of what was ordered, however we may ask you to tell us one or two items that were ordered. The most important thing to note, if you are one of the random samples, is that we will NEVER ask you to give us your full credit card details again unless you are placing another order. Therefore DO NOT volunteer this information. Your credit card details are deleted from the secure server upon completion of the transaction.

What do you do with my personal details?
Simple Elegance respect your privacy and as such you can be rest assured that we do not disclose buyers' information to third parties.
