Safety and Security

Shopping on Nelson School Supply is safe and secure. We ensure that it’s safe by transferring all of your personal information, including your name, address and credit card, over Secure Socket Layer (SSL) line. This ensures that your information is encrypted and cannot be read by others as it travels over the internet. The secure mode begins when you initiate your order. You will know you’re in secure mode when the tiny padlock icon (located at the bottom of your browser) appears as locked. You also can verify you are in secure mode by looking at the URL line of your browser. When accessing a secure server, the first characters of the site address will change from “http” to “https”. And after the information reaches us, it is stored on a secure server, resides behind a firewall and cannot be accessed from outside the company. At that point, your information can only be accessed by employees to process your orders.

If you are concerned about using your credit card over the internet, you can just phone our customer service rep listed below and one of our representatives will be glad to take your order.
