Character Entity References

We had a consultant write some PHP software for us which in most
respects is working, but we have one issue we are having trouble
comprehending.

If the following company name "Jones & Jones" were entered into this
software, it appears in our database as {Jones & Jones} (brackets
mine).

How do we characterize this and what is {&} called.

Thanks

Frank
