Security
This Web

When you send
sensitive information (such as your credit card number) to us via
our order form that information is encrypted and protected with SSL,
the current industry-standard encryption protocol. When you are on
such an SSL-protected page, a picture of a closed lock appears at
the bottom or top of some Web browsers. At other times this lock
appears open. Another way to tell if you are on a secure page is to
look at the address or URL of the page. (Look in the address box or
right-click on the page and select "Properties".) These secure SSL-encrypted
pages have URLs that start with
https://
instead of
http://.
If you have
any questions about security at our Web site, send an email to
support@therugs.com.
Legal Disclaimer
We may
disclose personal information when required by law or in the
