Secure Checkout Encrypted (HTTPS/SSL) Fraud Protection GDPR Compliance

Your security is a top priority at Refurb Phone. We use industry‑standard encryption, reputable payment gateways, and strict data‑handling practices so you can shop with confidence.

Secure Payments

All payments are processed via trusted payment providers that use advanced encryption and tokenisation. Your full card details are never stored on our servers.

  • Encrypted checkout (HTTPS/SSL) from start to finish
  • PCI‑compliant payment processing through recognised gateways
  • Strong protections against unauthorised transactions

Website Encryption (HTTPS/SSL)

Our entire website runs over HTTPS. Data transferred between your browser and our site is protected by SSL/TLS encryption, helping prevent interception or tampering.

Fraud Prevention

We employ automated and manual checks to help protect customers and our business from fraud:

  • Address verification and order‑risk screening
  • Manual review for suspicious activity
  • Verification requests where necessary (we’ll contact you if required)

Data Protection & GDPR

We only collect the data we need to process orders, provide support, and improve our services. Personal data is handled in line with UK GDPR/EU GDPR.

  • Limited access to personal data on a need‑to‑know basis
  • Data minimisation and retention controls
  • Right to access, rectify, or erase your data (subject to legal requirements)

For full details, please see our Privacy Policy.

Account Security

If you create an account, we recommend using a strong, unique password and enabling device‑level security (e.g., Face ID/Touch ID on your phone). Never share login details, and sign out on shared devices.
