Safe and Secure Payments - Privacy & Security

Making a payment to StorefrontListings.com is 100% safe. When we request personal information from you (such as name, address, phone number and credit card number) it is done on our secure server. We use industry standard technology to protect confidential information – SSL (Secured Socket Layer) – an advanced encryption technology that makes personal information unreadable as it travels over the Internet.

Federal law limits your liability for unauthorized charges to your account. The Fair Credit Billing Act states that your credit card company (creditor) cannot hold you liable for more than $50 in the unlikely event a fraudulent charge occurs on your account.

In the unlikely event of a fraudulent use of your credit card at StorefrontListings.com, you must notify your credit card company in accordance with their rules and procedures.

We realize that consumers are concerned about how the information they provide online will be used. We are committed to protecting your privacy and will use the information we collect about you to process your order or payment, and provide information you request. Please read on for more details regarding our Privacy Policy.
