Chapter 25. Secure Credit Card Business.
(note: Set the left and right printer margins to 0.25" for printing)

I will touch on this very briefly. If you plan to accept credit card payment (or any other sensitive information) use a secure server connection. A secure server connection is simply having your web page encrypt the data prior to sending the data over the Internet to the host server. The host server then decrypts the data locally. This prevents the data from being used by anyone that may intercept it. Use a secure connection and tell your visitor that you respect their security of sensitive information and you are taking steps to secure it.
