Could someone know the encryption key?
Each time a user connects to a secure server, this one is responsible for generating a random key for the session that is being established with the user, while the client’s browser generates another key, equally random, that serves to identify himself to the server.
If at the moment in which a secure connection has been established, other users connect to the server, other new keys are generated to identify the participants in the connection. The Secure Server ensures that the generated keys never coincide while several simultaneous connections are established.

How do I know that a secure connection has really been established?
You will be able to know if you have connected to a Secure Server if the URL starts with “https: //”. In addition, the most commonly used browsers indicate it graphically by means of an icon that shows the user whether or not there is a secure connection (for example, in the case of Internet Explorer the yellow closed padlock appears)
What security protocol is used in the transmissions?
In the connections with the Secure Server the latest specifications of the standard security protocol in the network are used: SSL.

3D Secure is the safest payment system with a credit card because it is capable of authenticating the cardholder, ensuring that the customer who is using a card number is actually the holder of the card. This is done through a secret key that your own bank will provide you and that you will only know, in most cases this key can be requested on-line. For more information you can check your bank’s website or contact him.

How do we protect your payment with a credit card?
fuerteventuractiva.com uses a server based on one of the most reliable secure payment systems on the Internet: the SSL (Secure Socked Layer) security protocol. (For more information, visit www.ssl.com).
All your personal data and the information you transmit to us travel in an encrypted way through the network, and they are protected and encoded before being sent for processing.
For payment with Visa and Mastercard, only CES transactions will be accepted (Electronic Commerce Secure) will be accepted. After verifying that the card is attached to the CES system, the system will contact the bank that issued it for the buyer to authorize the purchase. Once the bank confirms the authenticity, the charge will be charged to the card. Otherwise the order will be canceled.
The payment gateway we use for your credit card payment is from Banco Santader, which encrypts your data through the 256-bit SSL protocol. Our system does not store any banking data of your credit card but goes directly to the Virtual TPV (Point of Sale Terminal) of the Bank.

What is SSL?
The latest advances in browser and server technology have facilitated the use of worry-free web services related to electronic fraud. An example of this is Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), developed by Netscape, a security protocol sent to the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as an Internet draft. Basically, the protocol allows the browser and the server of a web session to authenticate each other and protect the information that will subsequently flow between both points. By using cryptographic techniques such as coding and digital signature, the protocol:
● allows browsers and web servers to authenticate each other
● allows website owners to control access to servers, directories, files or particular services
● allows the sharing of confidential information (such as credit card numbers) between the browser and the server, keeping it inaccessible to third parties
● and makes it possible to ensure that the data exchanged by the browser and the server can not be corrupted, either accidentally or deliberately, without it being detected.
