Credit card donations

  2. The person making the payment/donation is duly authorised to use the charge card or credit card for that purpose, and;

If you discover that a payment/donation has been made on the CCRT website using your charge card or credit card details in circumstances where you had not agreed to or authorised this, then (provided you have not, through failure to take reasonable care, allowed an unauthorised person to gain access to your charge card or credit card details or password), CCRT is required to refund to you the money that was received from you, provided that: (a) you inform your charge card or credit card company and CCRT of the unauthorised payment as soon as you discover it; and (b) you cooperate with your charge card or credit card company and CCRT, if necessary, the police in relation to unauthorised use of your financial details.

We use a secure server so that all supplied sensitive/credit information is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our Payment gateway provider’s database (Realex Payments).

We do not see or store your full card details when you make an online transaction.

The CCRT takes, and will continue to take, all reasonable steps (which includes relevant technical and organisational measures) to guarantee the safety of the data you provide to us and we will only use the data for the intended purpose.
