Payment Policy

Payment Policy

Welcome to Slek (accessible at www.slek.shop). Slek is an international e-commerce platform legally owned, secured, and operated under the corporate registry of NRITYA STUDIOS PTY LTD, incorporated in New South Wales, Australia (ACN: 697 471 435 / ABN: 11 697 471 435).

We are dedicated to providing our customers in the United States with a safe, reliable, and completely transparent checkout environment. This Payment Policy outlines our certified payment methods, billing currencies, and the advanced cryptographic measures we enforce to secure your sensitive transactional data.

1. Currency and Billing Transparency

To eliminate any confusion, hidden exchange conversion rates, or unexpected cross-border transactional surcharges, Slek adheres strictly to a single-currency billing protocol:

  • Standard Currency: All prices exhibited across our digital storefront, shipping catalogs, and invoices are calculated and fixed in United States Dollars (USD).
  • Checkout Guarantee: The absolute price visible to you on the product information page will match the identical price processed at the point of final checkout. No hidden handling fees, payment processing surcharges, or undisclosed taxes will ever be added to your order.

2. Vetted and Accepted Payment Methods

We support a broad arrangement of mainstream, verified, and internationally recognized payment gateways to ensure maximum flexibility and reliability. Slek officially accepts the following methods at our secure checkout window:

  • Major Credit and Debit Cards: Visa, Mastercard, American Express (Amex), Discover, and Diners Club.
  • Digital Wallets & Accelerated Gateways: Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay (subject to seasonal regional network availability during your session).

*Note: We strictly do not accept cash on delivery (COD), bank wire transfers, physical checks, or unverified peer-to-peer mobile payments. All transactions must be cleared successfully through our encrypted digital payment terminal before handling and shipment (1-3 business days) can commence.

3. Industry-Leading Data Encryption & PCI-DSS Compliance

Your financial security is our highest operational priority. Slek’s complete digital architecture is hosted on the enterprise-grade Shopify platform, achieving full alignment with the most stringent global standards:

  • PCI-DSS Level 1 Compliance: Our entire infrastructure is certified compliant with Level 1 of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). This is the absolute highest benchmark of data security recognized globally by major financial networks.
  • Advanced 256-Bit SSL Encryption: Every byte of sensitive credit card data transmitted during your checkout session is dynamically masked using 256-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology. This ensures that your private details are mathematically impossible to intercept or read by unauthorized third parties.

4. Privacy Assurance and Non-Storage of Payment Data

In accordance with federal privacy statutes and the strict mandates of the CCPA, Slek operates on a zero-retention infrastructure regarding consumer credit card records:

When you input your credit card number at checkout, the data flows through an encrypted direct-to-bank tokenization channel. Neither Slek nor NRITYA STUDIOS PTY LTD ever stores, views, or gains access to your full credit card number or CVV code. Once your transaction is approved, your financial details are systematically purged from our operational view, leaving only a randomized transaction reference token for customer support use.

5. Fraud Prevention & Order Verification Protocols

To protect both our real consumers and our brand infrastructure against unauthorized credit card usage and identity theft, Slek triggers automatic algorithmic screening on all incoming transactions. We reserve the right to flag, hold, or cancel orders that exhibit anomalous risk signals (such as mismatched billing and shipping locations, or high-velocity card testing).

If your payment is flagged for additional review, our risk mitigation desk will contact you strictly from info@slek.shop to verify cardholder authorization before releasing the items for shipment.
