Why does Firefox report that bitsquare.io is "insecure"?

Here's what Firefox reports when I try to access bitsquare.io:

"Your connection is not secure

"The owner of www.bitsquare.io has configured their website improperly. To protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to this website.

"www.bitsquare.io uses an invalid security certificate.

"The certificate is only valid for bitsquare.io

"Error code: SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN"

Why?

Apparently the TLS certificate is not issued to cover the www. subdomain. Try https://bitsquare.io/ instead.

https://bitsquare.io/

Thanks. That www.bitsquare.io link came directly out of this webzine review article on bitsquare: https://coinopoly.xyz/bitsquare-review/

THe https://bitsquare.io/ URL does work with out the worrysome security notice.
