# Error - Your Connection Is Not Private

# Have I been hacked!?

Calm down! In the vast majority of cases this error occurs whenever ** the security certificate on your website has expired **; or that in a few special cases you have ** inserted content via an unencrypted iframe ** on your website.

For safety reasons, the certificate must be renewed every two to three months. Our systems renew the certificate automagically, but occassionally this process fails.

### Wait 10–15 minutes

* If you have just **published** your website; **renamed** your website; **added** a new domain; selected a **new primary domain**; **reactivated** your domain; or **edited the domain setup ** in the menu ** Pages & Domains **: This is perfectly normal!

* If the security error does not disappear within __10–15 minutes__, contact Customer Service and we can see if the certificate needs to be issued manually or if the error is due to something completely different.

### Unsafe Scripts and iFrames

* If you have inserted a script, iframe, or similar, then be aware that all URLs must have a prefixed `https://`. If the provider of the script or iframe only supports `http://` then you must discuss this with the provider in question, because unsafe iframes are supported by modern web browsers no longer.

### Incorrect Time, Date or Time Zone

# But What is SSL?

With a Premium subscription at Bricksite, you get a free SSL–certificate on your site. SSL is basically a certificate that encrypts the information sent between the visitor and your site. That is, you are protected so that others do not "look with". This is equivalent to sealing a letter so that it cannot be opened during the shipment — SSL is only much more secure than that!

SSL is incredibly important because it builds trust between your visitors and your site. The following icon will appear on your page, next to the URL in the search box:
