    1. Hi Brittany! Please rest assured that enabling Data Encryption on your account doesn’t affect any other features. If you have further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at customercare@123formbuilder.com and we will gladly address them. Have a wonderful day!

  1. What is the difference between the Data Encryption under the Account Details and when the Secured SSL option is checked under the Publish page?

    1. Hello! Great question. Data Encryption is for securing your form data within your 123FormBuilder account as a second layer of security.

      SSL encryption makes all the information sent through the web form not interceptable. The SSL Encryption feature consolidates the security of web forms.

      Thanks
