Just as with payments in the physical world, where you can fall victim to fraud, the security of paying on the internet is largely in your own hands.

• This is what you can do yourself:
• Always keep your PIN codes and passwords a secret
• Protect your computer with a good firewall and virus scanner
• Make sure you use a secured page to make payments or to look at your transaction surveys. A secured page uses a https:// address instead of a https:// address and there is a lock or a key in the status bar
• If you pay after having received your goods, there is no risk that you will not receive the ordered product
• If you do not trust a web shop, then do not buy anything there. You would not do so in real life as well

Credit card

Most internet fraud using credit cards is committed with data which were stolen physically, i.e. in a store or restaurant. There are also special programs to create credit card numbers. That can be your number by accident. But nowadays you always have to provide the three digit CVC code, which you can find on the signature strip, when you make a payment. Those programs cannot create that code.
Nevertheless you do not need to worry about losing your money if somebody has abused your credit card data on the internet. Every credit card company uses the charge back: if you dispute a payment, then your money will be refunded immediately.

The gathered information coming from the forms filled in by customers is used or processed in one of the three following ways as part of the company strategy:

• To set the products at the disposal of the users.
• To allow users to search and download products.
• To gather complete demographic and statistical information about the users.

How do we gather information?

Bosmans Slaapcomfort-center uses several methods to gather certain other information such as 'cookies', 'referrers', IP addresses and environments. Below you find some more information about how we employ these methods.

• A 'cookie' is a data element which can send a website, such as the one of Bosmans Slaapcomfort-center, to the user's browser, which can put it on the user's system. A cookie can be used to set specifically measured information about the website they have visited at the disposal of the users. Some Slaapcomfort-center web pages use cookies, so that we can help the users in a better way when they visit the Bosmans Slaapcomfort-center web pages by providing them with adapted information according to their interests. Users can set up their browser so that they receive a warning whenever they receive a cookie, in order to be given the opportunity to decide whether or not to accept the cookie.
• A 'referrer' is the information which is passed on through a web browser which links to the web URL where the users come from and which links to us. Our web server gathers this automatically. This information is used at Belgium.com to analyse demographic and statistical trends and it can be used to provide users with information adapted to their interests.
• Our web server automatically gathers IP addresses. The user's IP address is a number which is used by computers on the network to identify the user's computer so that data (such as the website pages users request) can be sent to users.
