Security

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although LBCG will use its best efforts to take appropriate steps to protect Customers’ Personal Information from unauthorised access and misuse and notwithstanding that it has implemented technology and security features to safeguard the privacy of the Customers’ Personal Information, LBCG cannot guarantee the security of the data including the Personal Information transmitted to the Website. Any transmission of Personal Information is therefore at your own risk.

It is further worth noting and you hereby acknowledge that techniques employed and steps taken by LBCG do not guarantee that use of the LBCG Website is not vulnerable to any other security risks and that LBCG does not make any warranty, guarantee, or representation in relation to such risks including but not limited to viruses, worms, and other vulnerabilities.

LBCG uses Enterpayment online payment gateway to provide secure authorisation of credit card transactions over the internet. Enterpayment is a leading provider of services that enable internet users to more safely engage in e-commerce.
