<p class="Help-Text" style="color: #ff0000;">&#160;</p>
<p class="Help-Text">When you, as a retailer, start accepting credit and/or debit cards for payment using the QuickBooks Desktop POS Merchant Service, you have a responsibility to comply with the requirements of the <span class="hcp1">Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)</span>.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">This standard includes requirements for the configuration, operation, and security of payment card transactions in your business, and extends beyond your use of Point of Sale. It includes requirements for restricting user access, as well as for protecting your computers, operating system, and network, and for communications with other computers and the Internet.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">&#160;</p>
<p class="Help-Note"><span class="hcp1">Note</span>: If you use another merchant service for card payments, the cardholder data is not processed, stored, or transmitted by Point of Sale and this topic is not directly applicable to your use of Point of Sale. You should refer to the information provided by your service provider for compliance requirements.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">&#160;</p>
<p class="Help-Text">Point of Sale has been engineered to help you comply with these requirements in your use of Point of Sale, but it is your responsibility to ensure your entire system is in compliance.</p>

<p>Adherence to the standards not only is good for your business, as it assures your customers that their transactions are being handled in a secure manner, but also is fiscally important as your business could be held liable for fines or other damages if your customer's card information is ever stolen or compromised.</p>
