SOC 2 and SOC 1 Reports
Benevity undergoes annual independent evaluations on the effectiveness of our internal controls against the globally recognized System and Organization Controls (SOC) requirements, based on the Auditing Standards Board of the American Institute of Chartered Professional Accountants.

Benevity partners with PayPal and BlueSnap, certified PCI DSS payment providers, to protect cardholder data.
Benevity does not collect, store or process any cardholder data. Cardholder data is collected directly by our PCI DSS certified partners who specialize in payment processing services. To ensure we meet our obligations, Benevity completes an annual PCI SAQ-A for payment processing security.

B Corp certification verifies Benevity’s commitment to meeting high standards for performance, accountability and transparency on factors from employee benefits and charitable giving to supply chain practices and input materials.
Unlike traditional corporations, Certified B Corporations are legally required to consider the impact of their decisions on their employees, suppliers, community, consumers and environment. For more information, click here.
