Stripe

Online payments are powered by Stripe for thousands of businesses. They are a technology company that builds economic infrastructure for the internet. Businesses of every size—from start-ups to public companies—use Stripe’s software to accept payments for online business.

Payments through Stripe

If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Stripe stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted.

All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, and American Express.

PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers. For more insight, you may also want to read Stripe’s Terms of Service (Stripe Legal) for consumers or Privacy Policy (Stripe Privacy).
