# How does SimpleSpa transmit data securely?

At SimpleSpa we use Transport Layer Security (TLS), a form of data encryption, to ensure the privacy of all Internet communications both in our app and when clients are paying from your SimpleSpa online address:

* Individual user sessions are identified by a unique username at login
* Multiple layers of monitoring devices, including Web Application Firewall (WAF)
* Intrusion Prevention System capabilities
