Security: Your Protection Is Our Priority

At Viet Cedar & Stone, we take your security seriously. We understand that when you make a purchase online, you are trusting us with sensitive financial information. That is why we have implemented the most robust security measures available to protect your data.

PCI Level 1 Certification

Stripe, our payment processor, has been certified as a PCI Level 1 Service Provider by an independent PCI Qualified Security Assessor. This is the most stringent level of certification available in the payments industry. To put this in perspective:

  • Level 4: Small merchants processing fewer than 20,000 transactions per year.

  • Level 3: Merchants processing 20,000 to 1 million transactions per year.

  • Level 2: Merchants processing 1 to 6 million transactions per year.

  • Level 1: The highest level, reserved for the largest and most secure payment processors.

As a PCI Level 1 Service Provider, Stripe meets all 300+ security controls required by the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). This includes rigorous annual audits of Stripe’s systems, processes, and controls.

End-to-End Encryption

When you enter your payment information on our website, it is encrypted using industry-standard TLS (Transport Layer Security) technology. This ensures that your data is transmitted securely between your browser and Stripe’s servers, preventing unauthorized access or interception.

Tokenization

Stripe uses a process called tokenization to further protect your payment information. Instead of storing your actual card number on our servers, Stripe replaces it with a unique digital token. This token can be used for transactions but cannot be reverse-engineered to reveal your original card details. Even if our systems were compromised, your sensitive information would remain safe.

Fraud Prevention

Stripe employs advanced machine learning algorithms to detect and prevent fraudulent transactions in real time. The system analyzes thousands of data points—including purchase history, location, device information, and spending patterns—to identify suspicious activity and block potential fraud before it occurs.

Secure Data Storage

Stripe’s Card Data Vault (CDV) securely stores your payment information in a highly encrypted environment. This vault is designed to prevent unauthorized access and is regularly audited to ensure compliance with the highest security standards.

SOC Reports

Stripe’s systems, processes, and controls are regularly audited as part of its SOC 1 and SOC 2 compliance programs. These audits, conducted by independent third-party firms, verify that Stripe meets the rigorous standards for security, availability, and confidentiality. Stripe also provides a public SOC 3 report that summarizes its internal controls.

Shared Responsibility

PCI compliance is a shared responsibility between Stripe and Viet Cedar & Stone. While Stripe handles the secure processing and storage of your payment information, we are committed to maintaining a secure website environment. We regularly update our systems, use secure coding practices, and follow industry best practices to protect your data.

Fast and Efficient Refunds

We understand that sometimes a purchase may not work out as expected. That is why we have designed our refund process to be as fast and hassle-free as possible. Stripe’s advanced payment infrastructure allows us to process refunds quickly and efficiently, so you are not left waiting.

How Refunds Work

When you request a refund, we initiate the process through Stripe’s secure platform. Stripe then processes the refund back to your original payment method. The time it takes for the refund to appear in your account depends on your bank or card issuer, but Stripe’s efficient processing ensures that your refund is initiated without unnecessary delays.

Stripe’s Refund Capabilities

Stripe’s platform is designed to handle refunds seamlessly. Whether you paid with a credit card, debit card, or digital wallet, Stripe can process your refund quickly and securely. The platform also supports partial refunds, allowing us to accommodate a wide range of return scenarios.

Our Commitment to Your Satisfaction

We are confident in the quality of our products and want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase. If for any reason you are not happy with your order, our customer support team is here to help. We will work with you to resolve the issue promptly and process your refund as quickly as possible.

Mobile Payments: Pay on the Go

In today’s fast-paced world, convenience is key. That is why we support mobile payment options that allow you to complete your purchase from anywhere, at any time.

Apple Pay

Apple Pay is a secure and convenient way to make payments using your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, or Mac. With Apple Pay, you can complete your purchase with just a touch or a glance, without having to manually enter your card details. Apple Pay uses tokenization to protect your payment information, ensuring that your card number is never shared with merchants.

Google Pay

Google Pay is the Android equivalent of Apple Pay, offering a fast and secure way to pay using your Android device. Like Apple Pay, Google Pay uses tokenization to protect your payment information and allows you to complete your purchase with just a few taps.

Benefits of Mobile Payments

  • Speed: Complete your purchase in seconds.

  • Convenience: No need to carry physical cards or manually enter card details.
