All direct payment gateways offered by Wix.com and used by us 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, American Express and Discover.

We have put in place suitable procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect:

(a) encryption of personal information where appropriate;

(b) cybersecurity assessments of service providers who may handle your personal information;

(c) regular backup of databases and records to restore accidentally deleted data and correct accidental data modifications;

(d) regular training for our internal staff about cybersecurity and handling customers' personal information.

 

Please be aware that security is only as strong as its weakest link. In addition to us making sure your personal information is safe, we recommend that you do not use insecure channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information to us.

 

How long we retain your personal information depends on different factors, such as whether we need the information to maintain your account, to provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes or enforce other applicable contracts and policies:
