Giving out your checking account details and credit
card number online is a decision you should make based on fact.
So we thought you should know some facts about our company.
The Styles Check Company is headquartered in Bel
Air, Maryland - a suburb of Baltimore. We provide the largest selection
of check designs in the entire direct-to-consumer industry. Even
more important than our impressive selection and quality, however,
is our commitment to security. With over 75 years' experience
in security printing, we implement stringent safeguards from the
moment we receive your order until your products are in your hands.
To maintain the integrity of information you send
to us online, we use Secure Sockets Layer technology (SSL). SSL
encrypts your order information in a manner that can be decoded
only by The Styles Check Company. At the minimum, secure sockets
use 40-bit encryption. This means the data you submit is scrambled
in one of over 240 possible combinations-that's more than 1 TRILLION
different ways. Only our company has the key to determine which
combination is used and, therefore, can read the information you
send online.
You can verify that you are accessing a secure
server, both on Styles Checks' site and others, in a couple of ways.
If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock in the lower left
corner of your browser when you access the server, SSL is active.
You can also check the URL line of your browser; when accessing
a secure server, the first characters of the site address will
change from "http" to "https."
Think of how often you have left the check on a
restaurant's table. Many times your name, credit card number and
expiration date are in plain view. When ordering Styles Checks
online, however, you can order with confidence--knowing the information
you transmit is seen only by our company.
If you have additional questions about check security,
contact Styles at 1-800-356-0353, or
