SSL is structured to use "certificates" of identity to authenticate
websites and web surfers. A digital certificate contains the website
address along with a cryptographic key used to encrypt
information sent to us over the Internet. When your web browser
switches into "secure" mode, it asks our website to present its
certificate. The browser decides whether or not it trusts the
certificate by looking at who issued it. Our certificate is issued by
Comodo Instant SSL. If the browser trusts the certificate, as it will
with ours, then it will encrypt all communications with our website, using
the cryptographic key in the certificate. Our private digital
certificate means that you can have confidence that you are sending
information to one of our secure websites ONLY, and are doing it securely.
The following websites are owned and
operated by Tax Form Processing LLC and have a secure server:
|
provides encrypted communication between a web browser (such as
Internet Explorer or Netscape) and the system where a website is
hosted. This prevents third parties from being able to intercept these
communications and understand the information being exchanged (for
example, credit card numbers or Social Security numbers). Our server
utilizes the most up-to-date Secure Socket Layer (SSL) 128-bit
encryption for web browsers in the United States. For web browsers
outside the United States SSL 40-bit encryption is used.
