Activity Tracked: This feature sends page view events over to Google Analytics for consumption. For sites running WooCommerce-powered stores, some additional events are also sent to Google Analytics: shopping cart additions and removals, product listing views and clicks, product detail views, and purchases. Tracking for each specific WooCommerce event needs to be enabled by the site owner.

How we protect your data

Payments

We accept payments through PayTrace.net.

When Protect.js is used, customer credit card information is no longer sent directly through our server and instead is handled directly by PayTrace.net. This technology does not interfere our customers experience in the checkout process, but payment data is more secure behind the scenes.

You can learn more about Protect.js here: https://developers.paytrace.com/support/home#14000114131

SSL is required for PCI compliance due to the direct checkout to ensure that our customers’ credit card information is secure. HTTPS, the secure protocol for the web, safeguards our visitors by creating encrypted connections between our visitors and Blue Thunder Technologies website, protecting our visitors’ privacy and the data they share with you over the internet. Our website technology HTTPS is enabled with HTTP/2 (the latest hypertext transfer protocol), which also improves website load times for the best customer experience. Let’s Encrypt is a certificate authority who is providing BTT SSL certificate.
