General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

 

WHAT IS THE GDPR?

 

The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, is a regulation that came into effect May 25, 2018. You have a number of rights relating to your personal data, for further information please see https://ico.org.uk

 

The GDPR regulates the collection, processing, transport, and use of personal information about individuals in Europe.

 

What is HostMeNow doing to ensure that there is data protection for all our customers?

 

All information that is entered into our website, such as login and personal information, is completed through a secure connection (HTTPS/SSL).

 

When you send sensitive information over an HTTPS connection, no one can eavesdrop on it in process.

 

“HTTP Secure is an extension of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol for secure communication over a computer network and is widely used on the internet. In HTTPS, the communication protocol is encrypted using Transport Layer Security, or formerly, its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer. The protocol is therefore also often referred to as HTTP over TLS, or HTTP over SSL.” - Wiki

 

We utilise cryptography hash capacities to secure your data. Your password is put away as a hash process and, in case of a security break, your unique password can't be recuperated from our servers as its crypted into a hash. However, hashes can always be cracked so make sure to use a diverse password for each website you sign up for.
