DPD is compliant with the Service Provider requirements of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), a set of comprehensive requirements developed by the major card brands to facilitate the adoption of consistent data security measures.
There is nothing DPD takes more seriously than the reliability and security of our hosted cart and checkout. DPD is designed and developed using industry standard secure coding techniques and our servers and hardware are located in a secure datacenter to prevent tampering.
In security terms, it means that your business adheres to the PCI DSS requirements for security management, policies, procedures, network architecture, software design and other critical protective measures.
In operational terms, it means that you are playing your role to make sure your customers' payment card data is being kept safe throughout every transaction, and that they – and you – can have confidence that they're protected against the pain and cost of data breaches.
DPD's scanning and validation is performed by VikingCloud, a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) and Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) registered with the PCI Security Standards Council.
A PDF copy of our current compliance certificate issued by Control Scan can be provided to vendors upon request. Send us a support ticket and we'll be happy to provide it to you.
Merchant accounts, credit card gateways, and payment processors all require PCI compliance from their merchants. By using DPD as a PCI compliant service provider, you greatly reduce the PCI compliance requirements for your own business and website.
You will also have the peace of mind knowing that DPD is continuously taking steps to secure your customer's payment data.
