Your security in their poker rooms is their largest concern.

It is no coincidence that Paradise Poker is the World's Premier Online Poker Room. They have earned their players' trust. In fact, they are larger than even the biggest land-based poker rooms!

They know that in order to be successful they must provide a playing environment that their players trust 100%. they will continue to do everything they can to offer the most fair and honest games played anywhere in the world. their security and procedures are reviewed and updated regularly to ensure they keep that hard-earned trust.

In an on-line environment, collusion, hackers and ensuring fair cards are key areas of concern with respect to maintaining games of the highest integrity.

Collusion

Poker players are always aware of the possibility of collusion. Collusion is when two or more players on the same table work together as a team, unfairly knowing each other's cards, and betting with this knowledge in order to maximize their team's profits. Collusion destroys the integrity of any poker game. Any player that attempts to collude at Paradise Poker will be permanently banned from their games.

they use sophisticated algorithms to identify, track and uncover collusion. Though not foolproof, they feel their collusion monitoring makes the integrity of Paradise Poker games higher than even those played in real card rooms. their analysis includes automatic tracking of betting patterns related to the strength of a player's hand, and cross-correlating those results with other players at the same table to determine if they may be acting in concert with one another. In addition, management will thoroughly investigate all complaints registered by players suspecting collusion. Hand history recap emails are instantly available for all players and will show the exact betting of each game and the final hands of all players that called the river card. Hand histories will obviously not display any cards of players that folded since that is part of the integrity of any poker game.

Their goal is to prevent collusion and make Paradise Poker games the best, most honest and enjoyable anywhere in the world.

Hackers

Paradise Poker offers their clients world class security against hackers. All of the communications between the Paradise Poker server in Costa Rica and the client program running on their computer are encrypted using the internationally accepted industry standard SSLv3/TLSv1 encryption algorithm. What this means is that their cards, their name, their address, their credit card number, their password, and everything else that goes back and forth is protected using the same level of security that a bank would use. Packet-sniffing by other players cannot be used to gain any sort of advantage.

Furthermore, each player's cards are sent exclusively to that particular player's computer. None of the other computers know what their hidden cards are, thus preventing an opponent from hacking client software to determine their cards.
