Online Security Policy

Money Minder Financial Services (UK) Limited

We use encryption technology on all the Finance Navigator parts of the website to prevent anyone else from seeing your details, quotations or application information. We support 128-bit SSL encryption, which is the current industry standard for financial transactions. Your browser must support SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and it will tell you when you login if your browser does not support such security features. Our systems also support 64-bit (or lesser) SSL encryption however encryption levels below 128-bit should not be considered secure.

Your browser tells you when you're connected to a website using encryption in slightly different ways. Your browser may also warn you if you are connecting to a secure website. This is an option that you can set in your browser. Websites that use encryption have a web address that begins https://. When you use our website, this will appear in the web address field of your browser when you connect to any part of the website that is secure.

Many parts of the Finance Navigator require us to pass information between our systems and those of our agents and Services Providers as described in the Privacy Policy. We insist that all our agents also use encryption so that your details remain secure.

Leaving your computer unattended

Take care not to leave your browser unattended after you login. In case you forget to close it when you leave, you will be automatically logged out of your ‘My MoneyMinder’ session about 20 minutes after your last action on the site. You will need to login again when you return.

Ending your session / logging off

When you have finished using the website close your browser to remove your personal details from the computer's memory. This also stops someone else from looking back through the pages you have visited to see your personal information. If you login on a different computer or in a new browser session your original logged in session will be terminated.

Don't email us your personal information or security details

You can email us if your enquiry is simple. Internet email is not a secure method of transmitting personal data, therefore when you email us with an enquiry you must NEVER include security information such as your password. Similarly we will not disclose personal information via email.

If you have any enquiries about the Finance Navigator or your ‘My MoneyMinder’ session, please contact Money Minder Online on 01529 300300 or write to:
