Security

The Internet is one of the safest places to carry out a credit card transaction, and at Ferrybooker.com we are committed to ensuring that your card details are fully protected.

We have implemented technology to ensure that only we have access to your personal details and no-one else. When you purchase travel goods and services online with us, the booking screens are encryption-protected. We use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology to ensure safe transmission of your details. With SSL, your card details are encrypted (or scrambled) and then transmitted securely to our web server, ensuring no unauthorised access.

Your online purchase is actually far safer than traditional credit card purchases (where another person can write down your card number) because your credit card details are automatically scrambled and can only be de-scrambled by an authorised computer.

So that you can be sure that we are safe to use, we have obtained a digital certificate from BT Trustwise / Verisign, a leader in software used to protect and manage internet access. To view this site certificate on each secure page, double-click on the image of the closed lock or the solid key on the bottom bar of your browser window. A small frame displaying site security information will pop up

Our site uses the very latest technology to protect your credit card details, so you can rest assured that you can purchase online with security.

We also take the security of your personal information very seriously. Ferrybooker.com requires you to submit personal details including names, addresses, passport numbers and payment details to successfully make a travel booking. Your credit/debit card detail only stay on our system for the duration of the booking process and is encrypted using Thawte technology. Your details are maintained on our database to enable us to amend, cancel or update your relevant booking. We do not share your personal contact or payment information with any other person or organization without your express prior approval except in the bleow circumstances:

1. In order to provide certain travel services we are required to send minimal details, such as your name (along with the names of other party members), to our suppliers to formally record your booking. We do not pass them any other personal details
2. If required to do so by law or by any organisation with appropriate authority
