Security of Information

The security of your personal and financial details is paramount to us. That is why this website uses 128-bit encryption that utilises SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). This offers the highest level of security available on the Internet.

It works by automatically scrambling the information you send over the web thereby making it seem meaningless. Once it arrives, we have the key to de-scramble the words.

When you fill in any personal information or payment details, you will be in a secure area of the site. You can check this by looking for a padlock in the bottom corner of your web browser and by making sure the web address starts with "https://". This ensures that when you send your information over the web, it will be encrypted to prevent anyone from reading it.

In some instances, the web page may not display "https://" or a padlock - this is often the case with websites that use framesets. You can still confirm the security settings on these pages by right clicking on the page and selecting Properties. If the page is secure, the address line will begin with "https://".All the information that we save for you is protected by firewalls and a wide range of ITsecurity measures
