To ensure your personal security, this site uses 128-bit SSL encrypted transmissions between your Web browser and our Web server. This protects against the chance that someone (e.g. on your network at work or at your Internet service provider) may try to compromise your private information as it travels from your Web browser to our secure server. The Florida Maritime Museum and The Folk School at Florida Maritime Museum do not store your credit card information and you will be required to provide that information for each transaction. Transmissions over the internet are never 100% secure or error-free. As a result, we do not, and cannot, guarantee the security, accuracy, or completeness of the Personal Information we gather from you. However, we have implemented reasonable procedures to protect the confidentiality, security, and integrity of the information we receive from you.
