Is MondoPal PCI-DSS compliant?
Yes, we are.
The simplest way for us to be PCI compliant is to never see (or have access to) card data. The payment gateways we are using (e.g. Stripe, PayPal) make this easy for us as they can do the heavy lifting to protect our customers’ card information.
In a nutshell, we are taking payments off site by using gateways that use their own servers to process payments, and therefore we are not transmitting card data ourselves.
By using gateways, a best-in-class hosting provider and clear business policies/best practices, we are in compliance with the 12 core PCI-DSS requirements, across the six PCI standard categories. More information below.
