Safe and Secure Shopping with TheHealthBay.com

Totally Secure Shopping, Payment and Delivery

    

TheHealthBay.com understands that security is one of the most significant concerns during an online transaction. In reality an online transaction is probably more secure than a card transaction in a shop or conducted over the telephone or by fax, as the information transmitted online is highly encrypted using complicated logarithm combinations. This security technology ensures that the information you enter to register, order prescriptions or make payments are all kept fully secure.

You can feel rest assured that your transaction is 100% secure and is protected. We also use Royal Bank of Scotland’s Streamline service to process our credit card payments. RBS is one of the UK's largest banks.

TheHealthBay.com takes the issue of online security very seriously in order to protect our reputation as one of the UK’s leading online Health and Beauty Provider. Below is information about some of the measures we take to ensure that your experience with us is as safe as possible.

TheHealthBay.com is compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS), which is the internationally recognised standard of best practice in processing and storing payment card data. We are registered in compliance with the Data Protection Act, Registration No. Z714211X.
