Seeing a full-screen warning that reads "Your connection is not private" is a jarring experience. For most users, it’s a digital stop sign. For website owners, it’s a conversion killer.

It's flagging a problem with the site's security certificate, meaning it can't verify that the site is who it claims to be or that your connection is secure.
