The security of your Spiffy Store is of paramount importance, so in order to protect you and your customers we have implemented a number of security measures to ensure that your data is safe.

  • Secure Checkout

Your customers' personal and financial information is secured by encryption on every store's checkout pages. All Spiffy Stores come with a free SSL certificate that is used at checkout time to ensure that your customers feel secure and confident when making a purchase from your Spiffy Store.

  • Account Login Protection

All Spiffy Stores administration pages are also protected by an SSL certificate. This means that all of your toolbox data is encrypted, and protected against prying eyes while it is transmitted from our servers to your computer.

  • Public Access Session Protection

If you use your Spiffy Stores admin account on a public computer, such as in an Internet Cafe or library, then you need to know that your login session is safe from use by other users after you have finished.

In order to ensure this, you should always logoff after you have finished using your Spiffy Store Toolbox, and you should always close the browser when finished.

In the event that you forget to do this, your session will be automatically logged off after 30 minutes of inactivity.

  • Login Credentials Protection

Your login credentials are always protected by an SSL certificate which means that they are always encrypted, and cannot be stolen by a hacker watching your session.

However, in the event that your authorization credentials do get stolen by some sort of spyware that has been surreptitiously installed on your computer, you will still be protected by the additional security validation checks that we perform to ensure that you are the only person who can use those credentials.

  • Protection from Unauthorized Login Attempts

We protect your Spiffy Store accounts by validating each login request to determine from which country the request originates. By default, all the store's staff accounts can only be used within the country for which the store is configured.
