At FutureShop.co.uk, all online transactions are processed on a secure server using the industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology. The encryption process takes the characters you enter and converts them into bits of code that are then securely transmitted over the Internet. This means that all debit and credit card numbers, as well as personal information such as names and addresses are encrypted as they are transmitted over the Internet from your browser to our server. Look out for the ‘golden’ padlock in status bar at the bottom of your browser when you login and proceed to the checkout.
