8. Security of Your Personal Information
OUTA’s Donation and supporter pages use a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): a security protocol that provides communications privacy over the Internet. The protocol allows clients and server applications to communicate in a manner that prevents eavesdropping, tampering and message forgery. The protocol encrypts all personal information, including credit card numbers, names, and addresses. By doing so information cannot be read as it travels via the Internet. Whilst on a secure page, such as OUTA’s Donation Form, the lock icon appears at the bottom of web browsers such as Firefox, Opera, Netscape Navigator, and Microsoft Internet Explorer and is locked, as opposed to the unlocked and open icon, when one is ‘surfing’ the internet.
Kindly visit https://home.netscape.com/security/techbriefs/ssl.html for more information.
