Quote:uySAFE, Inc. (www.buysafe.com), the leading trust and safety company for e-commerce transactions, and TRUSTe (www.truste.org), the leading privacy certification and seal program, today announced that they have partnered to create “TRUSTe for Small Business,” a first-of-its-kind program that combines buySAFE’s merchant performance certification process with TRUSTe’s privacy certification process. The new program allows merchants with monthly sales of $1 million or less to signal compliance with the buySAFE and TRUSTe standards for trust and privacy, thereby increasing shopper confidence and driving higher conversion, sales and revenue.

To be eligible for the TRUSTe for Small Business program, online merchants must pass the buySAFE certification process and remain in good standing with buySAFE. Approved merchants will be designated with the buySAFE Seal, which certifies that the merchant is trustworthy and reliable, is continually monitored, and that its customers’ purchases can be fully guaranteed with a bond from buySAFE and its surety partners Liberty Mutual, Travelers, and ACE USA. Merchants in the program will also display the TRUSTe for Small Business seal, indicating that they adhere to TRUSTe’s strict privacy principles and comply with the TRUSTe Watchdog dispute resolution process....

Hi everyone.  I saw the question about where the TRUSTe Plus Privacy program was mentioned on buySAFE's site, and I thought I could be helpful here.  As Amy pointed out, there is now a TRUSTe Plus Privacy tab in the Merchant Services section of account dashboard.

If you can't access that private part of buySAFE's site, you can also read about the TRUSTe Plus Privacy program at the following buySAFE hyperlink:

I hope this is helpful for you!  Have a great week.

We added TRUSTe to TulipStuff.
Quote:$29.95/mo. or $240 a year – a savings of $500-3000 from the standard TRUSTe Certification rates

I think I'll dump the standard and switch to BuySafe at renewal time.
my suggestion to improve usability: the 'overview' and 'privacy policy' tabs should be merged...when I click on a link that says 'privacy policy' I'd like to see the privacy policy not an overview page (see our TRUSTe privacy policy for an example of the current tabbed interface: http://www.buysafe.com/Web/Seal/TrustePr...HcXw%3d%3d

Glitch alert.

Look under 'H' on the TRUSTe members list at https://www.truste.org/about/member_list.php.  The listings for TRUSTe members who joined through BuySafe are appearing with http:// before the URL which results in a dead link.
