Security on the clothinggroup.co.uk site

Is your internet connection secure?

Your payment and order details are normally sent to us across a secure connection that uses a 128 bit certificate. This means that the information is encrypted and cannot be read by anyone other than ourselves. You can see that the pages are secure because the address in the address bar changes from being http:// to https://. You will also see a padlock symbol or key in the bottom bar of your browser.

Please take the utmost care whenever you visit our or any other e-commerce site and in particular, make sure that nobody is able to obtain your password (if you use one). Once you have completed your purchase and to ensure all confidential information is removed, we recommend that you close all browsers.

Payment Information

We accept pay pal payments.

At Clothing Group, your account is only charged for goods once the items ordered have been despatched from the warehouse. If there are any items on your order which are not in stock, you will not be charged for them until we actually ship them to you. You will be advised by e-mail or post if we are unable to complete your order.

 

Personal Firewalls -

We at Clothing Group have noticed an increase in the use of personal firewall software (e.g. Zone Alarm, PTF, TERMinate and many others). Under certain circumstances these Firewalls may deny access to our (and other web sites) secure servers.

To enable access to secure servers, check that the firewall is configured to allow the web browser to connect over port 443 (SSL). We have also seen instances whereby stopping and restarting the firewall may resolve connectivity problems.

Accounts & Passwords

Your account contains your delivery and billing details, e-mail preferences and a record of your orders.
