How
secure is the BUYandHOLD website?
All
of your personal and account information is displayed through
our secure server software (Secure Sockets Layer or "SSL")
which encrypts all information you type in before that information
is sent to us. It also encrypts the information you receive
from us in your browser?s window. You can determine if you?re
on a secure page by looking for a locked padlock icon in
your browser window. You can find it on Netscape in your
"Navigation Toolbar" and in Internet Explorer at the bottom
of your window.
BUYandHOLD
uses the highest level of encryption to protect your account.
Encryption is the translation of data into a secret code.
Encryption is the most effective way to achieve data security.
We offer multiple levels of encryption to accommodate many
different browsers with various levels of encryption.
How
do I ensure the security of my BUYandHOLD account on the
Internet?
Never
tell anyone your account number, password or password hint.
Do not choose a password that would be easy for someone
to guess (e.g., your birthday). If you write down your account
number, username, password or password hint, place it in
a safe place and never leave it near your computer. Always
log out of your account before you leave your computer.
We also recommend that you change your password frequently.
