All payments made using the card are processed through the electronic payment platform of "Alpha e-Commerce" of Alpha Bank and uses TLS 1.2 encryption protocol encryption with 128-bit (Secure Sockets Layer - SSL). Encryption is a way of coding the information until it reaches its recipient, who will be able to decode it using the appropriate key.

From the very beginning until the completion of your on-line session, all your personal information is encrypted under the 256-bit (Secure Sockets Layer - SSL) encryption protocol. Every time you send information towards the system, your browser first encrypts the information using the 256 bits key and then sends the information to the system. The system decodes the information using the same key (which is predetermined at the start of your connection to the service) and then goes on to process the information. The system sends you information using the same encryption procedure.
