Sending unencrypted credit card information over the Internet involves assuming some risk -- rather like giving your credit card to a waiter to be rung up, or sending a painting through the post in a box sealed with masking tape.ShippingIf you feel that including your credit card information in an email message is imprudent, tell us in your message how you'd like us to receive it from you. We'll handle it in whatever way you feel is appropriate. If you've already given it to us in the past, please tell us; it should be on file, and you need not give it again in that case.
The UCI Bookstore now offers PGP -- a way of encrypting messages so that sensitive information such as credit card numbers can be sent with near-complete assurance.
