Safer shopping
Safer Shopping is a seal of approval established by TÜV Süd Management Service for the certification of online shops since 2001 .
Internet retailers who are allowed to carry the Safer Shopping seal of approval meet the test standards, in particular with regard to order and payment processing, data protection and data security and must undergo at least an annual inspection by TÜV SÜD Management Service. In addition to manual checks of the online presence, test purchases and an on-site audit are carried out at the shop operator's in order to verify compliance with the catalog of criteria.
Due to the high requirements of the certification, mostly large providers are currently certified according to safer shopping. The more than 200 certified shops include saturn.de , hornbach.de , Ergo Direkt and many large travel portals.
Safer Shopping is a founding member of the monitoring board of the quality seal providers of the D21 initiative and, together with other quality seal providers, is actively involved in the further development of the D21 quality criteria.
criticism
In October 2009, several data protection gaps in a S @ fer Shopping-certified web shop became known via the blog Netzpolitik.org . It was possible to view invoices from other customers and guess access data, provided that these were not changed by the users after the account was set up.
