a. Secure Data Transmission
We use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption to protect the information exchanged between your browser and our servers. This ensures that any data you share on our website remains private and cannot be intercepted by unauthorized third parties. You can verify this protection by checking for the secure "https" prefix in our website URL.
