Security Policy

Site Security
At SmartPak we use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology to encrypt the information you send us when you place your order. The information is encrypted on your computer, sent through the Internet as jumbled code, and decoded on SmartPak's secure server. It cannot be read in transit.

If you are still skeptical about placing your order online, you may place your order over the phone at 800-326-0282 or via fax at (774) 773-1444 during customer service hours: Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. EST.


Why did a window just pop up indicating that I was going to an insecure page?
We use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology to encrypt any of your personal information. Any page on our site that contains your personal information is secure. By their nature, secure pages take longer to load and are slower to navigate through so we only encrypt the pages that contain your personal information. If you navigate from a secure page that contains your personal information (like the billing page) to an insecure page that doesn't contain any personal information (like a product page) your browser will warn you that you are about to move into an insecure section of our site. Your personal information will always be secure on our site.

Our mission is to provide you with exceptional care while providing you with "knock your socks off" service at an affordable price. To provide exceptional service, we ask for telephone and email contact information with all orders. This helps us to resolve problems quickly. We also ask for your billing address, which we use to authorize your credit card. We promise that we will never sell or rent your telephone or email information to third party marketers. We use cookies to better understand your interests to help us to improve the relevance of promotional messages. We do not share any personally identifiable information collected through the use of these cookies. From time to time, we may make customer address information available to providers of products that we think may be of interest to you. If you prefer to exclude your name from third party mailings or advertisements, you can call us at 800-326-0282 - M-F 8:30-8:00 EST or Email us at customercare@SmartPakCanine.com.
