INTERNET SECURITY POLICY

Your Security is Our Concern

EIS knows that its participants are concerned about how information is protected from unauthorized disclosure. This notice describes our Security Policy. By visiting QuoteEIS.com, you agree to the practices described in this Security Policy.

Encryption

QuoteEIS.com uses strong, 128-bit encryption and SSL, short for Secure Sockets Layer, a protocol for transmitting private information via the Internet. SSL uses a private key to encrypt data that is transferred over the SSL connection. This protocol is a standard used by many websites when you submit confidential information, such as credit card numbers and other personal data. SSL creates a secure connection between your browser and our server. Addresses of web pages using an SSL connection start with https: instead of http: and most browsers also display an icon of a closed padlock  when you visit a page using SSL.

It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.
