Security

Secure Checkout with Encryption (HTTPS/SSL), Fraud Protection, and GDPR Compliance

Your security is a top priority at Refurb Phone. We use industry-standard encryption, reliable payment providers, and strict data processing practices so you can shop with confidence.

Secure Payments

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

  • End-to-end encrypted checkout (HTTPS/SSL)
  • PCI-certified payment processing via accredited gateways
  • Strong protection against unauthorized transactions

Website encryption (HTTPS/SSL)

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

Fraud Prevention

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

  • Address verification and order risk screening
  • Manual review in case of suspicious activity
  • Verification requests as needed (we’ll contact you if required)

Data Protection & GDPR

We collect only the data necessary to process orders, provide support, and improve our services. Personal data is processed in accordance with the UK GDPR/EU GDPR.

  • Restricted access to personal data on a need-to-know basis
  • Data minimization and retention limits
  • Right to access, correct, or delete your data (subject to legal obligations)

See our Privacy Policy for full details.

Account security

When you create an account, we recommend using a strong, unique password and enabling device security (e.g., Face ID/Touch ID on your phone). Never share your login credentials, and be sure to log out on shared devices.
