The 30-year-old has signed a new contract with Burnley for four years. He had two years remaining on his current contract and extended it now until summer 2020.
The goalkeeper announced via the club's website:
"I am obviously over the moon to sign for another four years. I'm really looking forward to the challenge, especially this season and whatever comes after that.
"Being at Burnley has been fantastic for me and I've enjoyed every minute, on a personal note.
"Now I'm looking forward, as I say, to what the future is, to keep challenging myself and the position.
"I really want to kick on and push that boundary now and see where I can get to," said Heaton, who was included in England's Euro 2016 squad.
"As ever, you reach that point and you think about the next one, getting more, starting a game and kicking on from there".
