Security and Privacy at eBubbles®
Safe and Secure Shopping
Ordering from eBubbles.com is safe and secure. Because we use SSL technology (secure socket layer -- the industry standard and among the best software available today for secure commerce transactions), all your information is encrypted as it is transmitted. For extra security, eBubbles does not store your credit card information (we only see the last four digits), the information is passed directly to our credit card processor for verification, and then to your bank. You will therefore need to re-enter your credit card information each time you shop.
SSL Web Server Certificates
We utilize THAWTE (a division of Verisign) Web Server Certificates to offer secure communications by encrypting all personal data to and from our site. Any time you see the SSL Certificate icon, you can be assured of complete confidentiality when filling out our forms and processing an order.
Secure Credit Card Processing
eBubbles does not keep your credit card number on our Internet servers. The persons filling your order never see your credit card number either. Dedicated to security and maintaining your trust, we processes your credit card purchase using the latest secure electronic commerce payment services available.

When you enter a contest or other promotional feature, we may ask for your name, address, and e-mail address so we can administer the contest and notify winners. We personalize your shopping experience by using your purchases to shape our recommendations about the merchandise that might be of interest to you. We also monitor customer traffic patterns and site usage to help us develop the design and layout of the store. We use email to communicate with you about your orders. Only with your permission will we email you for any other reason - - e.g. to let you know about special promotions. We know this is a privilege and not a right...we don't like getting unwanted junk email either. You have the option to decline or approve email communications from us at any time. Just select the appropritate response in your account information.
