Our business has processed thousands (yes, thousands!) of orders with absolutely no security issues for any of our clients.

How am I protected by your safe shopping guarantee?
Under the Fair Credit Billing Act, your bank cannot hold you liable for more than $50.00 of fraudulent charges. If your bank does hold you liable for any of this $50.00, we will cover the liability for you, up to the full $50.00. We will only cover this liability if the unauthorized use of your credit card resulted through no fault of your own from purchases made on our website while using our secure server.
In the event of unauthorized use of your credit card, you must notify your credit card provider in accordance with its reporting rules and procedures.
How do I know my data is secure when I checkout?
When you checkout with the BeeHiveCandles.com website our "1 Page Checkout" page will go into secure mode. You can easily see the URL (i.e. website address) starts with https, instead of http.
Example of secure URL as seen in the Firefox browser:

Do you store my credit card data?
No. For security reasons and your online data safety we never store your payment information (i.e. credit card data) in our databases. We never actually see your credit card information as it's directly authorized and billed when you press the submit button to process the order.
What is SSL?
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server (us at www.beehivecandles.com) and a browser (you, our valued client). This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private and integral. SSL is an industry standard and is used by millions of websites in the protection of their online transactions with their customers. To be able to create an SSL connection a web server requires an SSL Certificate (see below).
