Data Type Description
Information related to credit, debit, or other payment cards. This data type is governed by the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) and overseen by the University of Michigan Treasurer's Office. Credit or debit card numbers cannot be stored in any electronic format without the expressed, written consent of the U-M Treasurer's Office. That office is responsible for the only PCI-compliant environment at the university.
If your unit wants to start accepting credit card payments, contact the University of Michigan Treasurer's Office to arrange for this. You cannot handle the transactions using departmental computers.
Restrictions listed here do not apply to your own personal credit card information. However, it is recommended that you follow the same precautions with regard to your own personal information as you would with university data.
