Carella's Chocolates encrypts all personal information using Secure Socket Layering, or SSL. Originally developed by Netscape, SSL has now become approved by the Internet Engineering Task Force as an industry standard. Today, many Internet browsers support SSL, including Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Netscape Navigator.

To ensure that you are securely connected, look for an “https://” in the beginning of your browsers URL. In addition, depending on your browser, a closed gold lock should be visible somewhere on your browsers interface. Internet Explorer users can find this on their status bar, located on the bottom of their browser.

While you are shopping, you will not be connected securely until you log into an existing account, create a new account, or proceed to checkout.

Using 128 bit Secure Socket Layering on our server guarantees that your personal information, including your credit card, will be sent securely in an encrypted format, preventing your information from being viewed by others.
