Data Encryption & Protection
End-to-End Encryption
All payment data is encrypted using industry-standard AES-256 encryption from the moment you enter it until it reaches our secure servers. This ensures your sensitive information is protected during transmission.
What we encrypt:
- • Credit and debit card numbers
- • CVV codes and expiration dates
- • Bank account information
- • Personal identification data
- • Transaction details and history
SSL/TLS Certificates
Zwee uses SSL/TLS 1.3 encryption for all web communications. Look for the lock icon in your browser's address bar when using our platform - this confirms your connection is secure.
Security Tip: Always verify you're on the official Zwee website (zwee.com) and check for the lock icon before entering payment information.
Data Storage Security
We never store your complete payment card information on our servers. Instead, we use tokenization to replace sensitive data with secure tokens that are meaningless to potential attackers.
PCI DSS Compliance
Zwee is fully compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), the most stringent security standard for organizations that handle credit card information.
What PCI DSS Covers
- Secure network architecture
- Data protection protocols
- Vulnerability management

Regular Audits
- Annual PCI DSS assessments
- Quarterly vulnerability scans
