Data Protection and Privacy

At www.beehiveillustration.co.uk we want you to enjoy your shopping experience in the safe knowledge that any information that you provide us with, whether it is credit card or personal information is secure. In order for us to provide you with the best possible service, we need to gather certain information about you. This information will assist us in tailoring our services, specifically for you.

Unlike other sites, we do not make use of 'cookies' to identify you to our systems. All personal information, is held on servers that are not actually "live" on the internet, but "hidden" behind secure firewalls and protected by pass words. Additionally, our internal procedure helps to protect your privacy by limiting employee access to, and use of, this information.

Primarily, we will use your data to process your order and send your goods to you. This may include passing your details to delivery companies so that we can deliver your parcel. Basic checks are made against your data, to ensure that the details are genuine - these checks are necessary, particularly to help prevent the fraudulent use of credit cards.

Your information (such as name, address, purchase details etc) will not be given or sold to any outside organisation for its use in marketing without your consent.

Credit Card Security

The purchase area of our site is secure: this means that we ultilise industry-standard Secure Sockets Layers (SSL) technology to allow for the encryption of potentially sensitive information such as your name, address and other critically sensitive information, including your credit card details. Information passed between your computer and our Web site cannot be read if it is intercepted by someone else.

Did you know? The risk of credit card fraud is 100 times greater when you hand you card to the waiter in a restaurant than when you shop on the internet! Modern day encryption technology, used by many internet stores similar to us, virtually eliminates credit card fraud on the internet.
