Security Online with Aequitas Automotive Limited

Have you ever stopped to think who is getting access to the information you type in online?

What if someone gets hold it?

What if they use ?

For anyone who has ever been a victim of identity theft or had credit or debit cards cloned you will know how upsetting it can be. Its not only the cost aspect but also the distress and time it takes to sort it all out. We know that internet security and potential identity theft is a big concern for customers. Every time you enter your details online on any system they are sent via the internet . Unfortunately there are elements within society who want to exploit this and potentially use your details fraudulently. The answer therefore has to be using an internet security system. In laymans terms they send the information back and forth between systems in an encrypted gobbledygook format. Like any system some are more effective than others. Some are more secure than others. Imagine a house alarm for your home. Some only have an inactive box outside your house, some have flashing lights, some have audible noises and some have a manned armed response. Verisign is all of this.

When we were designing our new website we took all the suggestions and comments we had had and tried where ever possible to eliminate any concerns that where raised. A major concern was entering credit and debit cards as well as personal information. Naturally wanted to make sure that we had the most reliable, trusted system possible. There was only ever one choice, we enlisted the help of Verisign. This is the same system used by 97% international banking and main financial institutions as well as prestige established blue chip companies. Indeed, if you check your Google toolbar, you will find a green lock sign and you can see that they have made the same decision we have. Online security, ultimately your online security is not something we compromise on. The Verisign system is not cheap, but we are proud to say we are the first dedicated Gap Insurance provider in the UK to employ the Versign system. This security extends to our payment gateway, supplied by Sagepay, again a well regarded system of high standing.

Our website has been checked and secured. This means that when you enter any details on our system you can rest assured that it as secure as it possibly can be. This encryption (transmits the information in scrambled form) covers all emails and finishes with your credit card details. When you call us on our free phone number we log onto another version of the system again to ensure that any information we enter on your behalf is fully protected. Please note that no permanent record is ever made of sensitive information and we are a registered data controller. This means that we comply with the 1998 data protection act.
