Is our site secure?
On any page where we ask for personal or private information, we will direct you to a secure URL where we employ a SSL certificate. An SSL certificate is a digital certificate that authenticates the identity of a web site to visiting browsers and encrypts information for the server via Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. A certificate serves as an electronic "passport" that establishes an online entity's credentials when doing business on the web. When an Internet user attempts to send confidential information to a web server, the user's browser will access the server's digital certificate and establish a secure connection. The usage of this certificate along with logging, monitoring, and closely restricting access to sensitive areas provides maximum security for your important data.
