| Security Statement |
| |
| As the collection of information is facilitated through technological advances such as the Internet, we have re-established our commitment to protecting your Personal Information. Travel Acquaintance Incorporated has worked hard to develop an online system and method for matching the single traveler with a Travel Acquaintance with the knowledge that the personal information you provide us is safe and secure. |
| |
| The Secure Order Process: What is "Encryption"? |
| |
| Our website uses SSL or "Secure Sockets Layer," an industry standard security protocol. When you click on Match Profiles," you will connect with our secure server. SSL sends your browser information that "encrypts" your requests, changing all the information that you send back into a code that is extremely difficult to decipher. In fact, despite the impression the news media may have given, there has not been a single documented case of fraud involving the interception of a credit card number transmitted via a secure server over the Internet to date. |
| |
| Safe On-line Service is Guaranteed |
| |
| Use your Visa or MasterCard to place secure profile request at www.TravelAcquaintance.com, and you can requests as many profiles with even more confidence. In the event of any unauthorized use of your credit card account, through no fault of your own, resulting from shopping online at www.TravelAcquaintance.com, Travel Acquaintance Incorporated will not hold you liable for those charges. |

| What's a cookie? |
| |
| A cookie is a very small amount of text placed on your computer's hard drive. This text itself does nothing, but, when you click from one page to another, our web server can tell who you are because of it. This saves time and eliminates the chance that your shopping basket might get confused with someone else's. It also helps you by keeping your requests for profiles on our server for several hours after you fill it, just in case your Internet connection fails. |
| |
| Is using a cookie going to give you personal information about me? |
| |
|
No. Accepting a cookie does not give anyone access to your computer or to any personal information. It is simply a small file in which we keep information that identifies you as a unique individual requesting a profile. |
