At Wrought Iron Handicrafts, Inc., customer privacy, security, and confidentiality are very important to us.
We validate and process credit cards through Wells Fargo Merchant Services - a reputable and trusted credit card processor. Our credit card machine "chunks" the numbers appearing on customer's receipt. This means customer receipts will only list the last 4 digits of the card. No expiration date will appear. This way if someone finds a customers credit card receipt, there is no information on it that they can use to place an order.
As a security measure for our customers, we require the CVC code (located on the back side of the credit card (Visa, MasterCard, and Discover) on the signature line - last 3 digits). On American Express cards, this is a 4 digit code located on the front side of the card. Call your credit card provider if you have any questions on this code being required.
Any questions on our privacy policy, please contact us.
