This is ideal for encoding simple strings that you don't want prying eyes to catch right away. However, always keep in mind that an experienced programmer/someone with malicious intent could easily decode base64, as it's not based around any sort of encryption key.
If you were interested in looking into more advanced forms of encryption, may I suggest AES-256 (Rijndael)?
