SGHost.com uses Paypal for all credit card payments. Paypal automatically encrypts your confidential information in transit from your computer to ours using the Secure Sockets Layer protocol (SSL) with an encryption key length of 128-bits (the highest level commercially available). Before you register or login to Paypal's website to make payment, their server checks that you're using an approved browser - one that uses SSL 3.0 or higher.

Once your information reaches them, it resides on a server that is heavily guarded both physically and electronically. Paypal servers sit behind an electronic firewall and are not directly connected to the Internet, so your private information is available only to authorized computers.
