6. SECURITY

The SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol is currently the global standard on the Internet for authenticating websites to network users and for encrypting data between network users and web servers. An encrypted SSL communication requires all information sent between a client and a server to be encrypted by the sending software and decrypted by the receiving software, thus protecting personal information in transit. In addition, all information sent using the SSL protocol is protected by a mechanism that automatically verifies whether the data has been changed in transit.

In addition, personal security is provided by the password you provide when you become a member of www.whitemattress.gr. In order to present any of your personal data, you must first provide your username and password.

For this reason, you must keep these details safe to prevent them from falling into the hands of third parties. We also advise you to create passwords using symbols along with alphanumeric characters.
Finally, we remind you that the credit card details are not stored in the company’s storage media during the transaction but are directly entered in a secure environment of the partner company that is in charge of card routing.

During the online payment, the user is transferred to an encrypted page of secure connection with SSL protocol which belongs exclusively to the selected Piraeus bank, which takes over the payment in full and notifies whitemattress.gr when it is completed.
