How Do We RememberYou?
A cookie is an important way to help us remember you and to offer you
information targeted to meet your preferences. This is the most efficient way
to make the navigation on our site quick and easy - and tailored to the
specific needs of our distinct customer groups.
When you come to our site, we use a few cookies as identifiers so we can provide
you with a more personalized site experience. Not only do these identifiers
help us to remember items placed in your shopping cart between visits, but they
also help us retrieve and save your passwords - passwords that only you have
access to. As a result, this allows you to enter your password less frequently
during a session. You'll only be asked to provide your password when requesting
sensitive data such as credit card numbers, account information, etc., or if
you are accessing our site from another computer.
Additionally, several session cookies may be required, but after your site
session has ended, these cookies will be deleted.
Most Web browsers are automatically set to accept cookies, but you can usually
change your browser to prevent that if you want. You may still use our site
without cookies, but with very limited options, which is why we recommend
leaving your cookies turned on. If you disable your cookies, you'll be missing
out on the unique and personalized buying experience that we offer at
ARCElectronics.com.

Electronics is a safe one. We're committed to making sure that your data is
secure. That's why whenever you place orders or access any sensitive data, such
as your account information, we use a secure server which encrypts all
information that you input before it is sent to us. This secure server software
(known as Secure Sockets Layer or SSL) is the industry standard for secure
commerce transactions and all of your personal information (including password,
name and address) is encrypted to guard against it being read by any third
party. To further ensure that your data is kept safe, that's why we've added
the extra layer of protection with usernames and passwords.
