Security Statement

You can be assured that when placing your order through the Newark Online Catalogue your details are secure. The Newark Web site uses SSL (which stands for "Secure Sockets Layer"), the de facto standard for Internet security.

SSL is an open protocol for secure data communications across the computer networks. Broad support for this protocol promotes interoperability between products from many organisations. It provides an environment in which electronic commerce can be conducted and data can be safely encrypted and protected.

SSL provides a straightforward method for adding strong security to existing applications and network infrastructures. SSL is application protocol independent and provides encryption, which creates a secured channel to prevent others from tapping into the network; authentication, which uses certificates and digital signatures to verify the identity of parties in information exchanges and transactions; and message integrity, which ensures that messages cannot be altered en route. Newark.com is authenticated for E-commerce by VeriSign, the world's leading Web site authentication authority.

You can also be fully reassured that Newark does not divulge your details to third parties. All information supplied is used for our internal purposes only, so that we understand you better and make your life easier.
