Are your servers PCI compliant?

Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) Compliance

All of the servers at HostGator have been updated for PCI compliance.

VPS and dedicated servers are configured by default to be PCI Compliant, but be aware that changes made to your dedicated server or VPS may affect your PCI Compliance.

If you experience any issues, request a scanning vendor to email you a report and then provide it to support@hostgator.com so we can resolve the issues that conflict with compliance.

When you accept credit cards online through a merchant account, some of the details of PCI compliance are handled by your web host (HostGator), some are handled by your merchant account provider (payment processor), and some aspects are handled by you (the merchant).

HostGator handles all of the server related PCI Compliance requirements.

For more details about PCI Compliance, including your responsibilities, please refer to our article: What is PCI Compliance?
