The Loom Bands Kit is safe for youngsters eight years and older, who use it as a popular fashion statement and as a fun activity with friends. The high quality of the loom bands is assured as the product is manufactured in the same factory as the USA's most popular brand.
(Australia-NewsWire.Com, February 17, 2015 ) Cairns, Qld -- According to a recent study in January 2015 by Bizrate, 60% of consumers believe merchant web sites aren't doing enough to protect their credit card and personal information. However, when asked which retailers they do trust with their personal information, Amazon.com Inc., who is Number 1 in the Internet Retailer Top 500, easily topped the list.
"The results show the data thefts have impacted many shoppers", says Hayley Silver, vice president of Bizrate Insights. "No retailers and no retail channels are immune to some fallout from the credit card and personal information thefts that have been reported over the past year," Silver says. "To reduce shopper concerns over security and reluctance to make new purchases, retailers need to proactively turn the conversation toward their embrace of consumer protections."
When asked how they felt about these findings, Small Business CEO Sandy Riley of Hooked On Loom Bands stated, "As a business owner that uses the web to sell on, the safety of our customer's information is our number one concern. By using Amazon's online retail site as our Company's ecommerce platform has been a huge bonus to us." Ms Riley went on to say, "A small company such as ours could never afford the behind the scenes research and development that goes into online security. We overcome this by selling on Amazon. The peace of mind Amazon gives it's customers is well worth it."
Concern over data theft does seem to increase with the different age groups. Less than half (47%) of Gen Y (age 18-34) are concerned by shopping on websites, and this rises to 70% for Seniors (age 66 years and older). Women are more concerned over safety than men.
