A. Credit & Debit Card Security

Credit and debit cards can be used to make purchases with Camp Greenbrier in two ways. Both methods use Heartland Payment Systems as the ultimate processor. Your card data is stored through Heartland Payment Systems’ data storage and is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall. The direct payment gateway adheres to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, and American Express.

The first method to make credit and debit card purchases with Camp Greenbrier is through a direct payment gateway (more commonly known as an eCommerce purchase). SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) technology protects your information on our site. SSL technology is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browser remains private and confidential. Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted. Once your purchase transaction data leaves our site, it will be protected by Heartland’s secure server.

The second method by which credit or debit card information can be given to Camp Greenbrier is directly, either in person with the card present, over the telephone, through the Contact Us area of our website, or via email. Sending card information through the Contact Us area of our website or through email is not recommended as such methods may not be secure. Card information given directly to Camp Greenbrier will be immediately processed through Heartland Payments Systems’ secure system (outlined above), via computer. Following input, Camp Greenbrier immediately destroys the first 12 numbers of any credit or debit card.
