Security
The security of Resolve On-Line Services depends both on Resolve and you, the user.
Resolve
Resolve will take all necessary measures to ensure that your electronic information changes with us are secure and that your privacy is protected.
Resolve On-Line Services use 128-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption to protect your information. Encryption electronically scrambles the data stream between your computer and our server. This minimizes the risk that Internet hackers and other users will alter, or view information being transmitted. You must be using a browser with 128-bit encryption to access this site. 128-bit SSL encryption is one of the most secure forms of encryption available in North America.
Note
While every possible effort has been made to ensure the safety and integrity of Resolve On-Line Services information changes, the Internet exists as a public network and therefore is outside of the control of Resolve.
