What is 128-bit SSL Encryption?
SSL is the industry standard protocol that protects the confidentiality, integrity and authenticity of data transferred during a session.
Our website supports 128 Bit encryption of defined transactions that are made in secure areas of the Website using secure socket layers (SSL) technology. This means that these transactions can only be intercepted in their encrypted form.
SSL encrypted pages are identifiable by "https" URLs and a padlock which appears in the bottom right hand corner of the browser status bar. Clicking on the padlock will allow you to view details of our SSL certificate.
