Any information you enter on our site is strongly encrypted
by industry-standard protocol, SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). The
William Penn Web site uses SSL to communicate with secure browsers
like Netscape and Internet Explorer. These browsers encrypt your
personal information in a way that makes it extremely difficult
for anyone to intercept and misuse while being transmitted
between your computer and our server.
We recommend that you use a browser
which supports 128 bit encryption. A browser which supports this level
of encryption is available from Microsoft (Version IE4.0 and above)
or Netscape (Version NS4.0 and above).
We also take appropriate precautions to protect the security and
privacy of the information stored on our computer networks. Many
of the systems which store your personal information are not
connected to the Internet, reducing the likelihood of security
breaches. Our systems are also housed in secure facilities, and
access to your data by our employees is limited to a "need to
know" basis, controlled by password protected systems, and
monitored for abuse.
