Security Statement

How Do I Know my Communications with Pillar are Safe and Secure?

SSL Secure Server

Any information that you send to us is encoded with SSL encryption technology. SSL stands for "Secure Sockets Layer", and is the chief security protocol on the Internet. All pages that reside on an SSL secure server are protected by powerful encryption routines as information travels to and from the server over the Internet.

When you input confidential data into a form protected by an SSL secure server, all your information is encrypted during its journey over the Internet. This information cannot be decoded, even if it is captured by a third party in transit.

All pages which deal with sensitive information on Pillar reside on our SSL Secure Server, with an international security certificate supplied by Verisign.

There is a de facto standard among web browsers to display a "lock" padlock icon somewhere in the window of the browser (NOT in the web page display area).

Click (or double-click) on it to see details of the site's security.  Some fraudulent web sites are built to imitate the lock icon of your browser so it is wise to test the functionality built into this lock icon. It is important to know your browser. Check your browser's help file or contact the makers of your browser software if you are unsure how to use this functionality.
