Upgraded Security to SSL/HTTPS

We always want to be improving the trust and confidence our members have while visiting the ArtWanted.com website. We have just completed the upgrade to make ArtWanted even more safe & secure than ever before.

We have always been running the highest level of security on our credit card pages, but now this has been greatly expanded! This new upgrade to SSL/HTTPS for ArtWanted means that all your sensitive data such as usernames, passwords, emails and personal information is further encrypted while surfing the ArtWanted.com website. That is not all, we have converted the entire website to use this secure technology, so every page of ArtWanted has the same level of security & data encryption for your protection.

Clicking on the ArtWanted logo in the top header or when logging in will always take you to the most secure version of our website. You may notice a new green padlock icon in your browser bar that indicates your data is securely encrypted while on ArtWanted (like these).




This upgrade is also backwards compatible, so you can access ArtWanted at HTTP or HTTPS protocol. This is great, because if you have any links on social media or other websites to your ArtWanted content, those links will still work just fine without any problems.

For additional information about how our site protects your personal data, check out our Policies page.

On a related note, we have upgraded ArtWanted this month to ONLY be accessed via secure links. If the older non-secure pages are bookmarked or linked to, the user will be auto-forwarded to the secure version of the page for the highest security.
