Our server environment is protected by an advanced firewall
and other security technologies. Our Sites use strong encryption and we provide
safeguards to help ensure that our clients and their information is safe.

integrity of your information:
Your online account access has been designed to safeguard
your information and privacy by utilizing the latest Internet security
technologies. To further enhance security, these protective technologies have
been applied in layers.
Transmission security is provided by using SSL encryption
ensuring that only our client and our authorized systems are able to read the
transaction information as it flows across the Internet. Through the use of
digital certificates, our clients can also be assured that they are
communicating with the legitimate server, and not an imposter.
User account security is furnished through the use of a
unique account and password combination, which should only be known by the
holder of the account. Without this information, accessing or modifying data
and initiating transactions is impossible.
Access security is provided by a combination of segregated
network architecture, hardened server configurations, and redundant firewalls.
Internet-based attacks (hackers) are stopped through the use of redundant
state-of-the-art firewall technology and hardened server configurations.
We have implemented reasonable security measures to meet the
ever-changing security threats of the Internet, our web applications are
reviewed on an ongoing basis and monitored by network engineers.
