.PT launches campaign to promote safe and reliable online shopping

Today .PT is launching the campaign "This Christmas, buy online with security and trust". The campaign, which you can see on our digital channels and at ATMs, aims to convey to consumers that buying from .pt sites with the CONFIO seal is a guarantee of trust and security.
Here are some tips to buy online with security and trust:
- Buy online safely: opt for stores with encryption (https://) and give preference to .pt sites.
- Beware of phishing scams: check that the domain you are looking at is trustworthy and beware of emails or messages asking for personal information or credentials.
- Buy online with confidence: check that the store has trust seals (CONFIO seal, for example), which guarantee compliance with the best digital practices.
- Check the store's reputation: before making a purchase, especially from a store you've never bought from before, check reviews and ratings on the complaint portal and check if the store has trust seals.
- Check the store's information: before you buy, check the company's details: VAT number, address and customer service number. Check that the store has an electronic complaints book and that it has a contact for complaints.
- Protect your accounts: create strong, unique passwords for each store. Activate the second authentication factor whenever possible and consider using a password manager for added security.
- Keep purchase records: don't lose the details of your purchase! Keep confirmation emails, receipts and transaction details. This is crucial in the event of a dispute or to keep track of purchases.
- Be careful with your personal data! Avoid giving out your personal details. If you have to, make sure your rights are protected.
