Is shop.ticketscript.com Safe?

1) Misleading Claims or Unethical: Claims users privacy is protected, whilst using Google Analytics. FORCES the use of Google Analytics just in order to provide a basic site function. Most sites aren't that poorly designed. Claims IP address harvesting and cross-referencing (implied) is 'anonymous'. Collecting number plate information from cars, isn't anonymous either, it is only ONE step away from identifying and tracking that individual by ID. 2) Privacy Risks (also see above). Site DEMANDS date of birth information, when as before, most sites don't. Why? This is almost the 'holy grail' of personally-identifiable data, to narrow-down a set of data or fragments of various online personae to a real person registered with the state, etc. 3) Site allowed embedding in a site that didn't show the SSL / HTTPS padlock. It appeared to be unsecured. FAIL of design on both sites' behalf (the containing site is a temporary page on a little-updated site, so has more excuse for design cheapness - Ticketscript are a PAYMENT PROCESSOR, no excuses). 4) Poor customer experience due to now having wasted half an hour on this without being able to buy an acceptably-private ticket. FAIL of a site. This is because instead of charging their customers, they sell information from their customers' customers on, to make money. -I suggest frankly to not sell user marketing data as such an ingrained part of your business model if you wish to succeed, Ticketscript. Greed - or disrespect for people's human rights to privacy, annoys customers. "We collect personal and activity data, which may be linked." "Our service does not currently recognize the “Do Not Track” signal that may be available in some web browsers." "We don’t share your personal data with other companies. We generally do not share personally identifiable information (such as name, address, email or phone) with other companies, with the exception of advertising companies and analytics providers" "Analytics providers access data on our behalf. Analytics companies like Google may access anonymous data (such as your IP address or device ID) to help us understand how our services are used. " - So, Ticketscript DO share your personally-identifiable data with "advertising companies and analytics providers", but it's somehow "anonymous"? How is anonymity protected from abuse this way? It is all on trust (and Google are happy to abuse that, lots of precedent for this). "Advertising companies may use and collect anonymous data about your interests to customize content and advertising here and in other sites and applications. Interest and location data may be linked to your device, but is not linked to your identity." -says who? -Better to simply NOT collect or link any of this data. Or stop pretending to respect privacy.
