With Viper Cart, you have a choice of 3 types of URLs. They are as follows.

Fully Search Engine Optimised URLs
This is the prefered type to run but requires you to be using Apache as your web server and having mod_rewrite enabled.

URLs are like the following for this type :-
/browse/category/sub-category/product/index.html
/information/privacy-policy/index.html

Prefixed Search Engine Optimised URLs
This is the next best option and should be used where you don't have mod_rewrite enabled or where you are not using Apache. It is the same as Fully Search Engine Optimised URLs but is prefixed with index.php/

URLs are like the following for this type :-
/index.php/browse/category/sub-category/product/index.html
/index.php/information/privacy-policy/index.html

Standard URLs
This should be used as a last resort where the above two don't work on your server.

URLs are like the following for this type :-
/index.php?path=/browse/category/sub-category/product/index.html
/index.php?path=/information/privacy-policy/index.html
