Login Security

Q: The lock, which appears on my browser whenever I visit a secure page, does not show up. Is it safe for me to login to my account from this page?

A: Yes. It is safe to login from our website. Your Account Number is not transmitted until you click on the "login" button at which time a secure session is established between your browser and our Online Banking system. Your information is then encrypted using a 128-bit encryption algorithm (the strongest encryption method commercially available) and sent to our system for authentication into Online Banking. Please be assured that HAPO never transmits your login information without encrypting it first.
