Security
SSL Technology and how you benefit from it

Oakmont Limited realises how important security is to you, so we've taken a number of steps to enhance the protection of personal or confidential information sent to or from Oakmont Limited over the Internet. First, we establish a "secure session", using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Technology. This is done any time you supply or access personal or confidential information in one of our secure online areas.

SSL Technology creates a private conversation that only your computer and Oakmont Limited systems can understand. The SSL Technology encodes information as it is being sent over the Internet between your computer and Oakmont Limited systems, helping to ensure that the transmitted information remains confidential.

The use of SSL requires two components: an SSL-compatible browser and a Web server to perform the "key-exchange" that establishes a secure connection to Oakmont Limited Web server systems.
Oakmont Limited's SSL key is a 128 bit key from GlobalSign.

The technological requirements needed to benefit from SSL Technology

1. A Compliant Browser
In order to securely access your personal information via the Internet, you will need a browser with SSL capabilities. We recommend you use the latest browser versions available to ensure you have a browser with SSL capabilities. Examples of SSL browsers include Google Chrome, Microsoft's Internet Explorer 8 & above,Mozilla Firefox 26 and above, and the Safari web browsers from Apple installed on their Apple Mac & iPad. (Note that some older versions of browsers will not support SSL sessions and some older versions of browsers are not Java or JavaScript-enabled, which means that you may not be able to view all the features on the myWine Rack site).

2. A Compliant Internet Service Provider
Nearly all Internet Service Providers (ISPs) automatically enable the SSL session described above. If you use your company's internal connection to access the Internet and you find you cannot access the Oakmont Limited secure pages with an SSL browser described above, your company may be blocking access via a "firewall." Please speak to your employer's Internet access systems administrator for further details on your network's Internet access.

3. Enabled Cookies
You also must have enabled cookies on your browser in order to access confidential information. If you have chosen to disable cookies on your browser, you will not be able to access confidential information.
User ID and Password. The site requires the use of a User ID and Password as an additional security measure that helps protect your confidential information. This allows Oakmont Limited to verify who you are, thereby allowing you access to your account information, and preventing unauthorised access.

When you have finished using a secure area, make sure you always click on "Log Out" which appears on the left-hand side of every secure page. When you click on it, you will end your secure session. No further secure transactions can be conducted without re-entering your User ID and Password.
You should be aware that browser software often "caches" a page as you look at it, meaning that some pages are saved in your computer's temporary memory. Therefore, you may find that clicking on your "Back" button shows you a saved version of a previously viewed page. Caching in no way affects the security of your confidential User ID or Password. If you use a computer in a public place to access your account information, simply quit/exit the browser software before leaving to minimize the possibility of anyone else viewing your confidential information.
