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.
Protection America - coverage Hi, I am looking to buy visitors insurance for my mother and like the coverage offered by Protection America plan by IMG. But I see that Protection America does not cover Fl. So if we purchase Protection America for my mother and while visiting Florida, she develops a health condition and has to see a doctor, would that be covered by this policy? We live in NC, and plan to visit CA, NY, FL and would mostly be travelling by road, so would require a plan that would cover all states. Could you recommend an alternate plan. Thanks, Nandini
As long as you purchase the plan prior to arriving in Florida, then if you are just visiting Florida, it covers you if you fall sick there. In other words, the plan must not be purchased while in FL. Alternatively, if you live in FL and if your mother is coming to visit and stay with you in FL, it does not cover. Therefore, in your case, you can certainly purchase Protection America from IMG.
Thanks for the response. I had a related question - of the 2 plans - Protection America and Patriot America - which one is better? Is there any discernible difference between the 2? My mother is 59 yrs old and may be staying with us for about 3-6 months. Thanks, Nandini
Patriot America must be purchased for minimum 3 months initially (and paid 3 months upfront) in order to be able to renew in future. Protection America can be purchased for any duration initially and still can be renewed. Coverage is currently the same in both the plans.
