Data Residency
Over the last few years, countries around the world have increased the security protocols around storing personal data which is collected by companies for the purpose of making payments. One of the biggest changes to the storage of the data is where it resides. With our data residency solutions, merchants are able to select exactly which of our four data centers they would like to store their data.
HostedPCI Currently has Data Centres in Canada, Australia, Europe, and the USA.
In addition to selecting where your data resides, you can also choose whether your data is stored within Amazon Web Services(AWS) (USA) or Google Cloud Platform(GCP) (Canada, Australia, or Europe).
Benefits of the data residency Feature
- With local data centers, the merchants are able to collect and store their cardholder data in accordance with the rules and regulations of both PCI compliance as well as data protection regulations of their specific country.
- We help global merchants to collect and store their data within different data centers across the globe without having to manage numerous complicated solutions.
- The merchants are able to maintain full control of their data residing over different geographical locations from a single provider instead of managing multiple providers allowing for more flexibility and ease to maintain PCI compliance.
- Above all, merchants are able to take back control of where their data is stored and the flexibility to choose which data center provider the data is stored within.
