Last Updated 24th May 2018

This privacy policy applies to all data we process, and by using Make An Entrance Limited you consent to our collection and use of such data.

Security of personal information

 

We have taken steps to ensure the security and privacy of our systems and our user’s data and personal information. Our Website uses a market leading secure payment system, Opayo. Opayo offers all of the security measures you would expect and also incorporates the additional MasterCard "MasterCard Securecode" and Visa "Verified by Visa" security systems. At checkout there is a SSL encrypted secure page where you complete your order by providing your credit card details. Your browser encrypts the information that you type and the SagePay server decodes it. Systems which encrypt potentially sensitive information by Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology provide the best possible protection on the internet.

All card details are encrypted using 128-bit encryption; they are not held in clear text on any website. When you choose to pay online, your card details will not be available to Make An Entrance staff. Your card and address details are security checked and verified with the relevant card issuer and your payment is authorised. You will receive a message in your internet browser window to tell you that payment has been authorised, and we will provide email confirmation.

We are not liable for any unauthorised, erroneous or denied payments.

At Make An Entrance, we never keep customer credit or debit card details on file for security reasons. For telephone orders, card details are given and entered directly into our payment engines once, and we do not have access to these details after payment is made.

If you have any security concerns or questions, please contact us at help@makeanentrance.com or on +44 (0)20 8819 5869.
