Your shopping cart is the computer equivalent of the shopping buggy you use on your weekly trip to the grocery store. You can add items to your cart, you can remove items from your cart, and you can change quantities of any item in your cart. When you are ready to purchase the contents of your cart, you simply proceed to the checkout area, provide some information, and your order is on its way.

In the computer world, your shopping cart is actually a small computer file, called a "cookie". This cookie is created and stored on the hard drive of your computer when you place an item in your shopping cart. This file contains all of the information necessary for you to complete your shopping session. It DOES NOT contain any information that will allow us to track your computer use or obtain any information you don't want to provide. Keeping this little file on your computer makes a lot of sense. No matter how many windows you have open in your browser, all products selected go in this single shopping cart. If you are accidentally knocked off of the internet, as soon as you re-enter our website, your shopping cart is restored.

Remember, putting items in your shopping cart is a no risk proposition. You can ALWAYS alter the contents of your shopping cart or abandon it all together. You can even preview your shipping, taxes and total cost in the shopping cart.

The capture codes can be used only once, and when submitted, the source of the submission must be from the ActiVHeat store's internet IP address. It is important to note that we can never capture more funds than you authorized, even if you phone us and ask us to add some items. This would need a new order completely.

If we need to capture more funds, we will ask you to use the "RE-AUTHORIZE" product to provide us with additional funds e.g. upgraded shipping service.

We simply store a 54 digit code that allows you to submit a future order for credit card authorization. Please note, only YOU can use the code that is stored on our site for future orders. ActiVHeat personnel cannot place an order without your consent. Even with stored information, each order must have the CVV2 card security number entered manually. Only YOU and your credit card company know this number.
