More Technology Matters<br />
One of our members has pointed out that our website, theiceclub.es, is<br />
not secure.<br />
He's right, it's not secure, but at this time it probably doesn't need to be<br />
as we don't take any personal details, passwords etc., from anybody<br />
using the site. By “Not Secure” I mean it's not encrypted end to end, which becomes important when<br />
credit card and other personal details are being collected.<br />
Google has recently started to show a sign saying "Not secure" on their Chrome browser. I don't think<br />
any of the other browsers are doing this at the moment. Nothing has changed with our site, it's just<br />
Google trying to be clever. They can obviously see which sites are http and which are https but can't<br />
tell which collect data and which don't, so all http sites are being labelled Not secure.<br />
We can easily make it secure but it costs around an extra £65p.a. for the SSL certificate. The time may<br />
come when it becomes compulsory but, having discussed it with Sheila, we feel that we can wait and<br />
Working in a mirror factory is something I can totally see myself doing<br />
