- A return problem should occur and we have to solve a costumer related issue.
- Or if the costumer choose or return and buy something else from our store, then it will create a much easier, fast and smooth experience for our costumers.
All of our costumers credit card data are strictly protected by our gateway supplier - PayPal - who is a certified PCI Level 1 Service Provider, which is the highest and most stringent level of certification available in the payments industry (read a detailed description in paragraph

But be aware, if a costumer wish to be removed from our database, before the average complaint timeframe runs out, which is 2 years, then it will be very difficult for us to assist and support any complaints or return issues, because after removal of all data, the customer technical doesn’t exist in our system any longer.
