This article will explain why your site is displaying a warning message to certain visitors.
If your website uses an SSL certificate that was issued between 21 – 27 April 2021, it will cause macOS 11.4 and iOS 14.6 visitors to receive the following warning message when they access your site: ‘The Connection Is Not Private’.
To resolve this issue, simply follow the instructions outlined below:

On the next page, select the tab Generation 1.
On the next page, select Reissue Certificate for the affected domain name.
A pop-up window will appear. Simply paste your new CSR into the provided text box and tick the SHA-2 check box if you would like to use SHA-2 encoding. Once done, select Reissue.
After you’ve done this, we’ll email you when your re-keyed SSL certificate is available again.
Once you’ve received the confirmation email, return to the SSL Certificate management page and select Download Certificate for the affected domain name.
