We use the best-of-breed Extended Validation Secure Sockets Layer [“(EV)SSL")] authentication available to guarantee the confidentiality of online transactions made on our site. (EV) SSL authentication and encryption of the information that you send to us over the Internet help protect your online transaction information from third party interception. Trindstore.com & Trindshop.ca uses the highest encryption to protect your data and transactions.

Unfortunately, despite all of our efforts, there is always a risk that third parties may unlawfully intercept transmissions via malware, spyware or viruses that you may have obtained from other sites.

Refunding a Purchase

In the event that you as a customer are entitled to a refund or to correct any errors to your purchase transaction, Trindstore.com & Trindshop.ca will require the Order ID located on the receipt that you received with your order. The Order ID is the only reference number that can be used to refund any credit card or PayPal method of payment.

For your financial information security the Order ID is indirectly linked to the purchase method (ie. Credit Card) via the credit card processing center and once the two are matched is the only way the refund or adjustment can take place. Credit Card information still remains unviewable by anyone including Trindstore.com & Trindshop.ca and therefore is protected.

The Order ID which we also keep on file if you misplaced your receipt is searchable via our database by customer name, email address used and/or date of order placed. Therefore, you can be sure that if any refund or adjustment is necessary your order can be found and the refund or adjustment can take place easily and securely.
