Security:
Rest assured that your ordering and personal information are safe! The Postal Store is a secure, encrypted site. We protect your order and registration information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts the information you input. Encryption is the process of scrambling a message so that it cannot be read by anyone else, and The Postal Store uses extremely high 128 bit encryption.

Specifically, cookies contain the user ID, a technical identifier, and time stamp information to verify that a user is logged on to the web site and has been active on the site within 15 minutes.
