Just as a heads up, I'm not sure what others experience but every time I visit PePiPoo I get a "not a safe site to visit, continue to HTTP site" warning.
It's basicly warning me the site is not running the HTTPS protocol, and the only way to visit is to go via HTTP. Might need to take a look at the configuration of the domain maybe. Thanks! |

It's been this way for as long as I can remember and has been mentioned by others. It seems the site owners have no interest in forking out for an SSL certificate.
It's not a biggie, there is no personal information being transmitted. It is possible that someone "sniffing" the data packets could get a username/password but I can't imagine why anyone would bother. |

Just don't use your pepipoo password for anything else.

Just don't use your pepipoo password for anything else. This is good advice in general. Get some sort of password manager and use a different password for every site you visit. I couldn't even tell you what my PePiPoo password is, I have no idea. -------------------- Useful Links (for private parking charges):

Let'sEncrypt offer full-blown SSL certificates for free and they're well trusted in the web development community.
They make you do a quick verification check to make sure you own the website you're trying to get a certificate for, but it's easy to follow the instructions. |
