The following terms pertain to any purchases made by Users making online payments for purchases using the E-Commerce
(E-Gateway) Online Payment Services on the IBPC Website.

    services of the IBPC and subject to its discretion, is eligible to apply for E-Commerce Internet Payment
    Services. The User accepts that the IBPC has the right to refuse any membership request and payment, and may at

    Services as a

    from his internet connection, mobile phone, server or any other intermediary platforms used during the course of
    the online payment. The User also accepts that the Merchant Bank has the right to disable the Personal Internet
    Banking Services in the event of an identified misuse.
  3. SSL Security information: To ensure secure online payment and all other transactions of
    personal data, the Website
    uses a technology called SSL (Secure Socket Layer). SSL encrypts all communications between your computer and
    our
    server so that the information can only be read and understood by us. Usually a closed lock on your browser
    window
    shows a secure connection. For further information, please consult your browser’s security specifications. If
    your
    browser is equipped with SSL your transaction will automatically be secured. The common Internet standard to
    signal
    a secure site is a closed lock at the bottom of the browser. As long as the lock is displayed closed your
    information is secure and encrypted to avoid abuse. If you click the secure transaction link and still cannot
    see
    the closed lock, the reason may be that the window is in nested in another frame. To check that you have a
    secure
    connection (in Internet Explorer), click the right mouse button and properties, then certificates. You will see
    if
    the connection is secure or not. Another way (in Netscape Navigator) is to click the right mouse button and
    ‘view
    frame info’ at the bottom of the text you will see security information.
  4. Assumption of Risk: The User should bear in mind that the submission of information over the
    Internet is never
    entirely secure, and that neither the IBPC, nor its Merchant Bank can guarantee the security of the information
    submitted via E-Commerce Online Payment Services whilst it is in transit over the Internet and any such
    submission is at the risk of the User.
