The security of your information, transactions, and money is the top priority at PayPal.
Automatic encryption of your confidential information from your computer to ours uses Secure Socket Layer protocol (SSL) with an encryption key length of 128-bits (the highest level commercially available). Verification by the server assures that you're using an approved browser - one that uses SSL 3.0 or higher.
Once your information is transmitted, it resides on a server that is heavily guarded both physically and electronically. Servers sit behind an electronic firewall and are not directly connected to the Internet, therefore, private information is not accessible.
