Where the casino security policy indicates the presence of SSL
1) Why it is important to look for SSL information in a security policy
The presence of an SSL certificate is a prerequisite for the operation of a licensed online casino. Although it can be checked technically (via HTTPS and a lock in the browser), reliable operators additionally indicate this information in the security or privacy policy, confirming compliance with data protection standards.
2) Where exactly to look for SSL mention
2. 1. Privacy Policy
The section on data protection often contains a direct mention that information is transmitted via a secure SSL/TLS connection.
The wording may be as follows:
2. 2. Security Policy
A separate document or section where the operator describes the protection technologies used.
The protocol version can be specified here (for example, TLS 1. 3) and encryption type (e.g. 256-bit).
2. 3. Terms and Conditions
In the section related to payments and registration, it is sometimes mentioned that transactions are carried out through secure communication channels.
2. 4. Help Section or FAQ
Security questions often include answers about how player data is protected and which certificates are used.
3) How does a player check this information
1. Go to the basement of the site (footer) and find links to Privacy Policy, Security Policy or Terms and Conditions.
2. Use page search (Ctrl + F/Cmd + F) for * SSL *, * HTTPS *, * encryption *, * encryption *.
3. Check the declared technologies with the actual ones: the presence of a lock in the browser, checking the certificate through the browser menu.
4) Why mentioning SSL in a policy increases trust
Documents the use of encryption.
Demonstrates compliance with licensing authorities (MGA, UKGC, Curacao).
Shows the transparency of the casino and attention to protecting players.
5) Signs that the operator is hiding or not using SSL
No mention of data protection in privacy or security policy.
Blurry wording without specifics ("we protect your data," but without mentioning technology).
The declared level of protection does not match the actual one (the policy says about SSL, but the site opens over HTTP).
Conclusion:
The presence of an SSL certificate is a prerequisite for the operation of a licensed online casino. Although it can be checked technically (via HTTPS and a lock in the browser), reliable operators additionally indicate this information in the security or privacy policy, confirming compliance with data protection standards.
2) Where exactly to look for SSL mention
2. 1. Privacy Policy
The section on data protection often contains a direct mention that information is transmitted via a secure SSL/TLS connection.
The wording may be as follows:
- "We use SSL encryption to protect customer data during transmission."
- "All transactions are over HTTPS."
2. 2. Security Policy
A separate document or section where the operator describes the protection technologies used.
The protocol version can be specified here (for example, TLS 1. 3) and encryption type (e.g. 256-bit).
2. 3. Terms and Conditions

The declared level of protection does not match the actual one (the policy says about SSL, but the site opens over HTTP).
Conclusion:
- The presence of an SSL certificate can be checked technically, but honest online casinos duplicate this information in their security or privacy policies. Players should look for a mention of encryption in these documents and check it against the actual connection status. If the operator is silent about the use of SSL or provides conflicting information, this is a reason to doubt its reliability.
