How do I keep someone from stealing private information, like a credit card or social security number, that is typed into a page on my web site?
You should place pages that collect private information onto a secure server web site, which requires a secure server ID. The secure server ID is used to encrypt the private information. SalesTEQ.com has its own secure server ID that is included for your use in certain hosting packages. You may also purchase your own secure server ID from companies like VeriSign if you wish.
