We never store full card numbers on our systems.

Our practices align with PCI compliance expectations, and encryption keys are managed using secure key management best practices to reduce the risk of unauthorized decryption.
Privacy is also central to our approach. We collect only the minimum payment details required for processing and legal record-keeping. Where possible, sensitive elements are replaced by tokens and encrypted values. Electronic receipts and transaction records are stored in encrypted form to preserve confidentiality and integrity.
