How we’ve improved security and reliability


Introduced SSL certificates
If your domain name is registered with us, then your website will have this certificate. This ensures any sensitive information sent through your website is encrypted.

More secure hosting
Our new servers have limited accessibility and are increasingly more resistant to the cyber-attacks which cause websites to be taken down unexpectedly.

Increased website back-ups
All of the files associated with your website are now backed up daily.

Improved spam detection
If your email account is provided through us, then you’ll be benefitting from continuous spam filter updates.
How we’ve helped your website achieve GDPR compliance

Updated privacy policy
Your website privacy policy was updated to ensure that it complied with the new data regulations - this includes information about any third-party services.

Confirmation component available to all
Whatever your package, you can now add a tick box to a form that visitors must tick before they can submit their details. This is essential for capturing consent.

Updated cookie policy
The cookie policy on your website was updated to list the cookies in use on your site to ensure that it complied with the new data regulations.

Data access permissions enabled
If you have an it’seeze Shop website then your customers are able to see what data you hold on them and to delete it if they wish to.***

Updated cookie notice
When visitors land on your website, they now have the option to either accept all cookies, or to opt in or out of non-essential cookies.

Consent for blog comments
In accordance with GDPR, visitors to your blog will now have to consent to having their name and comment published on your website before they submit their comment.
