case.
Siminosepafi undertakes that all personal data submitted to it
(Name, Address, Telephones, E-mail, etc.), is registered (with the
possibility of access) by authorized employees, strictly and only when
required, such as for the processing of orders. At the same time, such

through Eurobank Service which is a pioneer in adopting new card payment
security standards protecting trading parties and minimizing the
possibility of malware. It also uses sophisticated detection and fraud
prevention systems for the card payments.
This way you may be sure
that your card details are not submitted to us but directly to the Bank.
Therefore, they will not be intercepted in any case.
Note: For your
own safety we advise you that when you connect to the Bank page or when
you start a Credit / Debit Card transaction, make sure that the
connection that appears in your browser starts with https: // ..... ...

debit cards and prepaid cards.
CAUTION: There is no extra
charge for using Credit and Debit Cards. If the submission of your
credit / debit card details is done via computer (remotely) and you are
not physically present at our shop, there may be a relative delay from
the Bank until it completes the approval. Consequently, the shipment of
goods to you will be delayed accordingly. In the meantime, although the
money will have already been blocked on your account, in no case will it
have been blocked by us or for our benefit but by the Bank itself
(until the completion or termination of the transaction).
