Security Policy PayPal Payment Security
You can count on PayPal's technology to help keep your transactions and financial information safe and private. By using advanced encryption methods and constantly improving their existing technology,
PayPal has built its reputation as a leader in privacy and identity protection.
PayPal automatically encrypts your confidential information in transit from your computer to theirs using the Secure Sockets Layer protocol (SSL) with an encryption key length of 128-bits (the highest level commercially available).
Once your information reaches PayPal, it resides on a server that is heavily guarded both physically and electronically.
PayPal's servers sit behind an electronic firewall and are not directly connected to the Internet, so your private information is available only to authorised computers.
