Well-Trained Mind Press realizes that cyber security is a primary concern for our online customers. This FAQ describes our measures to protect the personal information you submit on welltrainedmind.com during transactions and other submissions and actions.
Digital Security and Encryption: Our Practice and Providers
Cloudflare and DigiCert digital security technology on certain pages to help safeguard personal information. To view our website's security certificate, click the padlock icon in your search bar. Or, you can look for the instructions in your browser's "Help" section.
We use encryption technology to protect and secure the transmission of your information on all welltrainedmind.com pages that have an Akamai site certificate icon, and we accept orders only from browsers that communicate through Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, with at least 128-bit key length encryption.
Transaction Security
When you place an order in our store at welltrainedmind.com, your credit/debit card number is encrypted upon transmission. The welltrainedmind.com store checkout process is protected through card encryption and a digital site certificate. When you are on a page with a site certificate, a closed lock or solid key icon will appear by the URL in the search bar. To verify the site certificate before submitting your credit/debit card number, click on the lock or solid key or look for instructions on how to view the site certificate in your browser's "Help" section.
Other personal information you submit may also be encrypted when transmitted to protect its confidentiality.
This article from our Help Center – FAQ describes the security protocols related to purchasing and credit card access. In summary and plain English: Well-Trained Mind Press has no access to your credit/debit card number, nor do we retain the number. The transaction is managed through authorize.net.
Your WTM Press Account: Email Addresses and Passwords
When you create an account with welltrainedmind.com, your email address will be your User ID. If you use an Apple email address (.me, .iCloud, .mac) or a cable company's email service (e.g., comcast.net or any of the Roadrunner addresses), please read this FAQ.
You'll be asked to generate a password when you create your account. The system will likely suggest a strong password and store it for you, encrypted. To get the latest advice on creating secure passwords, search the internet using this string: "How to make a secure password."
Please don't use your email address as your password. Our case-sensitive passwords require you to use a number, a special character, and at least 8 characters.
Once you've created an account, welltrainedmind.com stores information such as your name, billing and shipping addresses, telephone number(s), and email address. Your password allows you to bypass re-entering this information each time you place an order on welltrainedmind.com, and you can update it from within your account. We do not store any credit card information.
If You Need Help
Let us know if you need help with an order, or if you need to cancel an order, or if you need to return an item. If you are concerned about internet security and prefer to place your order on the phone, please call our office during business hours. Please don't include your credit or debit card information in a voice message, a fax, or an email.
