Security of your credit card data

The PictureCode website uses the Authorize.net payment gateway to authorize and process credit card transactions. Authorize.net is a subsidiary of Visa and one of the largest processors of Internet credit card transactions.

Your credit card number never actually transits through any PictureCode server. Instead, it is sent directly from your web browser to Authorize.net, using a procedure called the "Direct Post Method". It works like this:

In this scheme, PictureCode never sees your credit card data and we have no way to store any credit card data. So, even if our server is breached, a hacker will not be able to access any stored credit card information.
