Make Sure Your Details Are Protected When Shopping Online
The single

at the bottom of the screen. It shows
that your details are protected when
being sent.

KEY SAFE SHOPPING TIPS
- Websites: Use ones you know or which are recommended.
- Records: Keep a copy of what you've ordered, plus the supplier's confirmation message.
- Quality: Your high street consumer rights apply online.
- Cooling off: In many cases in the EU the law lets you change your mind and get a refund within 7 working days of the delivery.

Your high street rights apply online
Your high street rights apply equally when buying over the internet as when shopping on the high street. So remember, goods must be of satisfactory quality and adverts and descriptions must not be misleading. BUT with auctions and private sales the general rule is "buyer beware".

Remember always look for a closed padlock sign at the bottom of the screen
when shopping online. It shows that your details are protected when being sent.
