Security What steps have you taken to secure this web site? GoClubsOnline is now protected with a SSL certificate and all forms and pages processed are encrypted. When accessing a web site using SSL, Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome show a padlock icon at the right of the URL or Address bar, while Safari shows a padlock icon at the right in the window bar.

A secure web site uses encryption and authentication standards to protect the confidentiality of information in web transactions, such as submitting forms.

Currently, the most commonly used protocol for web security is SSL, or Secure Sockets Layer. For a security standard such as SSL to work, your browser and our web server must both be configured to use it.

When you connect to our GoClubsOnline web site, you will be using SSL, and your browser asks our server to authenticate itself, or confirm its identity. The authentication process uses cryptography to verify that a trusted independent third party, or certificate authority has registered and identified the server.

In addition, SSL encrypts the data that you send, and incorporates a mechanism for detecting any alteration in transit, so that eavesdropping on or tampering with web traffic is almost impossible. This is essential for safely transmitting highly confidential information such as birth dates and credit card numbers.

Practically all current browsers are set up by default to accept SSL certificates from most established certificate authorities and to notify you when you are entering or leaving secure sites.

Finally, for those who enroll their club in GoClubsOnline, we use PayPal to accept payment by either credit card or your PayPal account. PayPal also uses SSL and other protections to make your payment transaction as secure as possible.
