1. Data
encryption
Econnecta Online Store
assures encryption of your purchase, order, and account
information on security-enabled browser (such as Microsoft
Internet Explorer version 2.1 or greater, or Netscape
Navigator version 2.0 or greater), thereby making it extremely
difficult to read data even if it is wrongly intercepted.
Econecta employs best practice
industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology from
Geo Trust to allow for the encryption of:
-
Critically-sensitive information like your debit, cash, and
credit card number
-
Sensitive
personal information such as your name and address
Econnecta also utilizes
internationally recognised and reputable payment solutions to
give you peace of mind guarantee on your orders and
purchases.
If you are still
uncomfortable with submitting your personal information via
the Internet for any reason, please feel free to contact us to complete your order.
2. What is
Encryption?
Encryption is a process,
which ensures data integrity and confidentiality by utilizing
software to scramble sensitive information while it is in
transit to Econnecta.
3. How Does
Encryption Work?
Encryption is based on a
two-key structure namely public key and private key. The
public key is distributed to those you want to communicate
with. The private key is for the recipient's use only.
On sending personal
information to Econnecta, you use Econnecta’s public key to
encrypt your personal information. That means, if at any
point during the transmission your information is
intercepted, it is scrambled and very difficult to decrypt.
Econnecta uses her private key to receive and decode your
encrypted personal information.
4. What
Information Does Econnecta Encrypt?
Econnecta encrypts all
personal information you give us when you place an order
online. Remember, if you feel uncomfortable providing any of
this information online, please feel free to call one of our
representatives at the telephone numbers listed on our site.
5. What
Encryption Software Does Econnecta Use?
Econnecta currently uses the
industry-standard SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption. We
are committed to always keep up with the current technologies
in order to provide the best practice security
countermeasures for our customers.
Protecting
yourself on the internet
1. Your Browser
security settings
First line of defence online
to prevent theft and ensure confidentiality of personal
information is your browser security preference settings. The
most popular browsers offer you the ability to receive an
alert or notification if any of the following happen or are
about to occur:
-
Receiving an
invalid site identification for the site to which you are
about to transmit.
-
Transiting
from secure to insecure transmission modes, vice versa
-
Sending a
transmission over an "open" or unsecured connection
2. Browser
security signals
An unbroken key or closed
padlock icon will appear in the bottom border of most
browsers to indicate that SSL (Secure Socket Layer) security
is in operation. Clicking on the icon will display the
digital certificate associated with the secure connection.
The digital certificate is designed to guarantee the identity
of the remote computer to which you are sending your details.
If you are still
uncomfortable with submitting your personal information via
the Internet for any reason, please feel free to contact us to complete your order.
