have no liability for disclosure or access to Information due to errors in

practices. Dream Cakes Mississippi encourages you to review and understand the
privacy policies on these websites before providing any information to them.
Any complaints regarding this Website should be submitted to Dream Cakes
Mississippi at 1006 Top Street,
Flowood, MS 39232 or [email protected]. The fact that Dream Cakes Mississippi provides any such links is not
an endorsement, authorization, sponsorship, or affiliation with respect to such

SECURITY
Dream Cakes Mississippi has taken commercially reasonable security measures to
help protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under
its control. All information is stored in a secure operating environment. When
sending sensitive information across the Internet - including your username,
password, and purchasing information such as credit cards – Dream Cakes Mississippi
uses encryption software to encrypt all information sent or received so that it
cannot be intercepted and used by a foreign party. Once your information is
received, it is stored on a secure server, and access to your data is
restricted to you and authorized personnel. Dream Cakes Mississippi also
restricts access to the personal and account information of customers to those
employees and third parties who need to know that information in the course of
their job responsibilities and as required for Dream Cakes Mississippi to
provide Services to customers.
Any personal information you send us is encrypted by Secure Socket
Layers (SSL), which protects information you submit or receive through this
Website. In addition, any sensitive personal information that you send to our
Website (such as social security number or mother's maiden name) is held in a
secured environment, protected by tools such as firewalls and/or database field
encryption. Dream Cakes Mississippi uses firewalls to help limit entry by
anyone without proper authorization. A firewall is a security mechanism that
(1) regulates the data going in and out of a network, (2) it is a commonly
used, specialized computer which acts as a shield against data going in or out
of a network, and (3) It checks to make sure that communications only occur
between approved individuals and that the communication is in the proper
protocol.
No representation is made, however, regarding the unconditional security
of such submissions. Dream Cakes Mississippi requires that your browser support
SSL, and does not allow information to be stored on your hard drive unless you
specifically download it and save it on your computer. For security reasons,
access to this site is limited to SSL-capable browsers like Netscape Navigator
6.2 or higher or Microsoft's Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher. These browsers
will activate SSL automatically whenever you sign on to your Dream Cakes
Mississippi account. Under no circumstances should you use any software,
program, application, or any other device to access or log-in to the website,
or to automate the process of obtaining, downloading, transferring, or
transmitting any content to or from Dream Cakes Mississippi' computer systems,
website, or proprietary software.
You can tell if you are visiting a secure area within a website by
looking at the symbol on the bottom of your browser screen. If you are using
Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer, you will see either a lock or a key.
When the symbol appears unbroken or the padlock is in the locked position, your
session connection is taking place via a secure server. If you need a strong
encryption browser, you can go to the Netscape website or the Microsoft website
to download the latest Navigator or Internet Explorer browser. Dream Cakes
Mississippi does not recommend the use of beta browser versions.
CREDIT CARD
PROCESSING
Dream Cakes Mississippi has partnered with PayPal
for processing online credit card transactions. PayPal, the leading provider of
digital trust services, has been processing credit cards securely over the
Internet since 1995 and currently provides secure payment services for more
than 60,000 online merchants. PayPal's internet payment gateway supports Secure
Socket Layer (SSL) technology with 128-bit encryption. These encryption
technologies work with Netscape Navigator (versions 2.0 and above), Microsoft
Internet Explorer (version 3.0 and above), and AOL (AOL 3.0 and above). All
financial information submitted on Dream Cakes Mississippi' site is encrypted
and digitally signed as it travels over the Internet using PayPal's
industrial-strength combination of DES encryption and RSA public key
technology. Using your credit card affords you the added advantage of knowing
that, in the event that there is a problem with your purchase, your credit card
company will allow you to dispute purchases. Furthermore, in the extremely
unlikely event that shopping at Dream Cakes Mississippi leads to an
unauthorized use of your credit card, most financial institutions either cover
all of the resultant charges or limit your liability (refer to the Fair Credit
Billing Act or your credit card agreement for further details). Further, to
prevent data compromise in the storage server, PayPal stores sensitive
transaction information on secure systems that cannot be accessed through the
Internet. Dream Cakes Mississippi does not process credit card transaction or
store credit card information on its servers or on its property. Furthermore, PayPal
uses hardware and software firewall technology and additional encryption
technology to eliminate all opportunities for intruders to break into a server
and compromise information.
