It worked for me:

The mistake I was doing was using an & instead of & (silly I know)

 ?ssl=true&sslfactory=org.postgresql.ssl.NonValidatingFactory

and yes the link definitely is helpful: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/connecting-to-relational-databases-on-heroku-with-java#connecting-to-a-database-remotely

AND Keep in mind: in this link, jdbc:postgres://host.. is used, which might not be suitable for you (use postgresql instead) if No suitable Sql driver error occurs
