Are Your Credit Processing Policies Compliant?
Global Payments Inc, the preferred vendor for MADA,
wants you to be aware of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) and how it
can help protect your dealership. The card associations developed the PCI DSS
to help strengthen data security at the merchant level and combat credit card
data compromises. Merchants with point-of-sale (POS) systems and computers with
an internet connection are at significant risk for having sensitive data - such
as customer credit card data - stolen. This kind of theft from security
breaches at merchant locations - both large and small - has cost merchants
millions of dollars in fines, restitution, and reputation. Complying with PCI
DSS is a merchant's responsibility. For more information and a free
cost/service analysis, please contact Julie R. Douglas,
julie.douglas@globalpay.com or by phone,
636-724-6110.
