Our online reservation system is
secure 
and your credit card information will be encrypted before being
sent to the hotel. However because the hotels reservation form page
may be "frames enabled" the secure icon may not automatically
appear on your browser window.
After you have filled out the "
CHECK AVAILABILITY"
form for a hotel or apartment and have clicked on the "
Confirm
this reservation" button to access the "Booking Details"
page, where you will be asked for credit card details, the reservation
process is
secure. If your browser is set up properly, when
you first enter a secure page, you will see a warning that you will
be viewing pages over a secure connection.
If you do not get this type of message, you may need to ensure that
your browser is set up correctly to notify you when entering secure
pages. Unfortunately because there are numerous browsers and browser
versions, we are unable to address each possible way to view the
security of our reservation pages. However, the following is how
to check security on the "Secure Reservations Page" page
if you are using Internet Explorer 5.0:
Right click on "Booking Details" page OR the little
lock icon
at the bottom of the page (if the pageis not embedded as a frame).
Select Properties. Click on "Certificates" button
- the secure icon will appear and an explanation of the Certificate
Properties will be displayed.
At
Fuerteventura.lanzarote-tour.com we have our own SECURE SERVER (inter-sat.com)
and have been using a Secure Certificate from THAWTE, one
of the largest Secure Certificate Providers in the world,
for over 5 years. |

NOTE: You see a lot of HYPE out there, especially on Hotel
Directory sites, about how secure they are, and some of them even
use Verisign logos, when in fact, they do not even have a secure
server. So, next time you visit one of these sites, keep in mind
the instructions above and check out their
"secure-server"
You MAY get some surprises about WHO is really getting your credit
card data.
