Security

Encryption

The security of your personal details is paramount to us.

That is why our websites (https://www.myvetshealthplan.com and https://www.vetsure.com) use 256-bit encryption that utilises SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) which is considered to be the industry standard for website security. It works by automatically scrambling the information you send over the web so it is meaningless. Once it arrives, we have the key to de-scramble the words.

When you fill in any personal information or payment details, you will be in a secure area of the site. You can check this by looking for a padlock in the bottom corner of your web browser and that the web address starts with “https://” – the letter ‘s’ stands for secure. When you send your information over the web, it will be encrypted to protect anyone from reading it.

All the information that we save for you is protected by firewalls and a wide range of IT security measures.
