By looking at our website, we are pci compliant. In an effect to maintain PCI compliance, our servers here and at our cart hosting company, 3dcart, have to be scanned monthly for any changes. At madvapes, WE DO NOT HAVE ANY ACCESS TO ANY CREDIT CARD INOFRMATION other than first 4 digits, last 4 digits and the billing address you provide. We can see if a card has passed an AVS (Address Verification) and if the 3 digits on the back of the card match and the expiration date matches but WE CANNOT SEE THE ACTUAL DATA, only result codes.
Even on the our credit card processor's backend system we also do not have access to any information other than first 4 and last 4 digits of the card, the amount and billing address info.
If you are a repeat customer, you already know that you have to enter your credit card info everytime at checkout as we do not store any credit card information at all. Card info is entered by you, processed securely by the card processing api then gone. All that's left is a transaction ID that references the transaction.
Suprisingly enough, I had 3 debit cards hacked last year and I never used them ANYWHERE. I always open a points visa card under my regular bank accounts and use that exclusively for any charges so nobody has direct access to my money
But they still got hacked and were never used. 2 of the cards still had the activation stickers on them so go figure how that happens.
I feel for the customer that had an issue and it's easy to assume a lot of things but our reponse is the same on the few times that we have been asked about this.
