About Cookies.
Many web sites, including this Site, use cookie technology to help users navigate efficiently. When you make selections or set preferences on this Site, we may send a request to your web browser to record certain of your selections in a "cookie" file. The cookie is a small text file that resides on your hard drive. From time to time, this Site may request the cookie from your browser so that we can retrieve the stored information and you do not have to make the same selections over and over again.
Please note that with most browsers, a user can set the preferences to show a warning each time a cookie request is received. You can also usually set the browser not to accept cookies at all. However, to make your experience using this Site as efficient as possible, we suggest that you allow your browser to accept our cookies. At times, some of the advertisers on this Site may set cookies when you select their ad banner.
Secure Transactions.
While we are confident that transactions on this Site are secure, we recognize that you may have concerns about purchasing travel online. To ensure that every transaction is as safe as we can, we use some of the most advanced technology. Our secure servers are in place to protect the information using advanced encryption and firewall technology. This is to prevent your personal information from being read as it travels to our ordering system.
In order to most efficiently serve you, credit card transactions and order fulfillment are handled by reputable third-party banking and distribution institutions. They receive the information needed to verify and authorize your credit card and to process your order. They are under strict obligation to keep your personal information private.
In the unlikely event that your credit-card information is somehow stolen and unauthorized travel charges ever appear on your credit-card statement as a result of travel purchases made through this Site, you must follow the reporting procedures outlined by your credit-card provider and contact us immediately. Most credit-card companies cover all charges that result from unauthorized use of your card, or limit your liability to $50.
Our guarantee. If you are held liable for the unauthorized charges made to your credit card as a result of a credit-card purchase for travel from our secure server while properly using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology (see below), we will cover the remaining liability, up to a maximum of $50.
Remember, when using our secure server, your travel purchases are guaranteed to be safe and secure.
Our Site is Secure
By making your travel purchase on our secure server, you are protected by Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, utilized by most popular browsers, including Google Chrome, Microsoft Explorer and Safari. This technology allows us to use the most advanced encryption tools necessary to protect information transmitted between your computer and our server. Through encryption, the personal information you enter, including your name, address, and credit-card information, is converted into code that is then securely dispatched over the Internet.
Encrypted information received by us may then be shared with the travel providers (i.e., airlines, hotels, and car-rental agencies) that you select in your reservation. Once received by 1st-Air.Net, your credit-card information is not usually transmitted over the Internet again.
LEVELS OF ENCRYPTION MAY VARY DUE TO SOFTWARE AND COMPATIBILITY. You understand that the technical processing and transmission of the Site and all transmissions between you and us, including your personal content, may involve (a) transmissions over various networks; and (b) changes to conform and adapt to technical requirements of connecting networks or devices
