Security and Privacy
The Scout Association of Australia, Queensland Branch Inc will not reveal your personal information to external organisations except for the purposes of fulfilling your order.
When purchasing from this site, your financial details are passed through a secure server using the latest (TLS 1.0) 256-bit SSL (secure sockets layer) encryption technology. 128-bit SSL encryption is the current industry standard and 256-bit outperforms this standard.
If you have any questions regarding our security policy, please contact our customer support centre through applications@register.scoutsqld.com.au. Where you are using an older browser that does not support the current encryption method, the server will re-negotiate at 128-bit encryption and may use SSL 2.0 or 1.0, these are still industry standard protocols.
