Protect the data of your customers with our SSL certificates now
The answer is very simple: As soon as you request data from your website visitors and this data is transferred to your web server via a form, this data must be encrypted. For example, if you use a contact form on your website, you must use the https protocol to encrypt the data. But also when entering e-mail addresses in the course of a newsletter registration, these data must be encrypted via SSL.
In principle, SSL encryption has been mandatory for the transmission of data under the German Telemedia Act since 1 January 2016. Due to the somewhat vague wording of the law (state of the art, recognized encryption method), only a few companies implemented this requirement. However, since 25.5.2018 a clear regulation has been in force that prescribes the use of SSL certificates. Fines of 20 million Euros or up to 4% of the worldwide annual turnover are threatened in the event of administrative offences. With us you receive SSL certificates already starting from 1.99 euro.
Google already pointed out in August 2014 that the use of SSL certificates can improve the findability of websites. In addition, the search engine giant uses unsafe pages in its browser to mark "Chrome" as unsafe. This factor alone should motivate every website operator to use an SSL certificate.
Whether a website has an SSL certificate or not is very easy to determine. And users can also easily find out what SSL status a page has. The following signs indicate an SSL certificate:
