Most websites nowadays adopt the HTTPS protocol to connect to a browser, using an SSL certificate to ensure that the connection is completely private. It does that by encrypting your data, so no one would be able to intercept the connection and steal sensitive information such as passwords or banking details.

When a web browser detects an issue with the website’s SSL certificate, the “Your connection is not private” error message will show up to inform users that the website is not safe.

Here are some methods to fix “Your connection is not private” on your browser:

🟣 Refresh the Page or Clear the Browser Cache

The “Your connection is not private” error may be a temporary issue, and you will only need to refresh the page to fix it. If this method does not work, clear your browser cache and then refresh the page.

🟣 Use Another Browser or Restart the Computer

If the error persists, visit the website using a different browser. Other options are to restart your computer and temporarily disable the antivirus software on your computer. In addition, make sure that your computer’s time and date are configured correctly.

🟣 Use a Different DNS server

We recommend using Google’s public domain name system and adding two addresses to the DNS servers section:

👉 8.8.8.8
👉 8.8.4.4

🟣 Bypass the Error Message

If the error message still appears, try bypassing it by clicking on the Advanced link and proceed to the website by clicking on the website’s URL. However, do not enter passwords or other sensitive information as the connection is not secure.

🟣 Contact the Website Owner

If you can, inform the website owner about the error message so they can take action right away. If you are the website owner, re-install the SSL certificate to fix “Your connection is not private” on your site.

At Hostinger, use the SSL panel to uninstall your current SSL certificate and install a new one. Feel free to contact our Customer Success team so they will help you fix website errors right away.

How to fix issues for my hostinger website when it is pointed to another platform.

I updated the DNS settings but this is like an on and off thing and my website is losing its credibility because when my customers get this safety related message while accessing the website, it's like a threat that their information is not safe on my website or can be compromised.

Please speak much more slowly, and articulate each word clearly; speaking English so fast with such a foreign accent makes what you are saying very difficult to understand. Thank you.
