Check List: Step Three!
Verify secure handling of card data.

You have indicated you are using a standard credit card terminal. Most of these terminals are already certified as PCI compliant and do not store card data if used properly.

If you are using a PCI-certified payment solution, then your main concern will be that you are not storing card data anywhere else in your business. Below are some common ways of storing card data that you should review:

Card information should not be stored on any computer workstations. If it is, this data needs to be properly secured using the required PCI standards for this information, such as encryption software.
Paper receipts do not need to be stored for more than 24 months. If you store paper receipts, especially manual imprinter receipts or receipts that are not truncated to FACTA guidelines, they need to be stored securely in a lock box or safe.
