CREDIT AND PAYMENT CARD INFORMATION

SV uses third party payment processors (Credit Card payments) and PayPal to process payments made for products and services via the Website. All online payments will be conducted in accordance with Payment Card Industry (PCI) data security standards (which are high!) and your billing information (which is only used by these payment processors for the purpose of performing fraud protection) is encrypted before being communicated to them. Subject to the below exceptions, your credit card details are communicated directly from your browser to these payment processors - StefaniaVaidani never sees nor has direct access to your full Permanent Account Number (PAN). This means that the payment form is either off-site or displayed in a frame on the payment page.

For Credit Card payments, if on the payment page you have requested that your card details be remembered and the payment was successful, StefaniaVaidani stores the card type, a Masked PAN (only the first 6 and last 4 digits) and the card’s expiry date as well as an associated token. This information is stored by us so that you and we can identify your stored card and use it for further payments at StefaniaVaidani. This stored information can be deleted via the payment form on the Website should you wish to do so.

We also store separately the last 4 digits and card type so that we can identify transactions made by a particular card. 

For PayPal we only store the tokens required to identify the transaction with PayPal, issue refunds and identify transactions made using PayPal.
