The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)—which was developed by the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) created by Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, and JCB—is an extensive set of technical and operational standards that a company needs to follow to ensure that all companies that process, store, or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment.
There are many stringent requirements, including but not limited to:
PCI DSS has six major objectives, 12 key requirements, 78 base requirements, and over 400 test procedures. Click here for more information.
When a business is PCI-compliant, it means that that the business reviews and follows the guidelines set forth by the credit card companies to help ensure your credit card information is protected and your personal information is secure.
I have the following queries, after reading the "certificate wording" document.: 1) Is the ATLAS INTERNATIONAL policy for US citizens only, or for a person of any nationality? 2) Does this ATLAS INTERNATIONAL policy apply to Schengen region/visa-holders only, or for anywhere in the world, except USA? 3) In the "certificate wording"and "Brochure"document, there is no mention of the altitude till which a trekking activity is covered by Atlas. Can you let me know the altitude limit which is covered? 4) Page # 11-12 in the "certificate wording"document contains paragraphs on "Emergency medical evacuation". Is this service provided within the premium cost of basic coverage (as found in the "Quotes and Purchase" section) or is there any additional amount to be paid extra to be covered under "Emergency medical evacuation"? Please confirm. 5) What is the process for pre-authorization/approval before an emergency medical evacuation? Do I need to call to a particular number to inform the situation? If yes, what's the number and is that line available 24*7 ? 6) Who arranges/contacts a local agency for emergency evacuation vehicle such as a ground vehicle or a helicopter? 7) Is there a group policy? Or do we need to purchase individual policies only from Atlas? Thank you for clarifying doubts. We are 7 team members for trekking activity to be done in Nepal Himalayas. We would take a call after understanding the Insubuy/Atlas policies.
