When you purchase ACE-HF online, no data is transmitted anywhere until and unless you click the "Submit" button. Then the data is encrypted. It is decrypted only when it arrives at our secure location. The data is retained by ACE-HF to meet banking and Credit Card requirements, and to enable us to provide support to registered users of ACE-HF. This data is retained on a computer not connected to the Internet. It is never shared or sold to anyone. SECURITY. ACE -HF uses its own unique security system to protect your credit card information. Our method has two great advantages over the 40 and 128 bit public key-based systems used by most "secure" browsers: The data is not transmitted unencrypted on the web or on any web connected computer. The data is not stored anywhere unencrypted on the web or on any web-connected computer. In addition, a stolen credit card number is a problem for merchants, not you or your credit card company. Your credit card company will refund any disputed charges and then take the money from the merchant. It is up to the merchant to bring suit against the fraudulent user of the card number (if he can find him).
