  PayPal's security & compliance posture, captured from the PayPal Trust Center
  (paypal-trustcenter.com, powered by SafeBase). PayPal operates as a PCI DSS
  Level 1 payment provider and maintains ISO/IEC 27001, PCI P2PE, and SOC 1 /
  SOC 2 reporting; full reports and bridge letters are gated behind Trust Center
  verification. This is the searched, human-verified fill (the automated probe
  does not clear the trust.<domain> keyword threshold since PayPal's trust
  center is on a distinct SafeBase-hosted domain).
certifications:
  - {name: PCI DSS, level: Level 1 service provider, note: Highest level for payment processors; Attestation of Compliance available.}
  - {name: PCI P2PE, scope: Point-to-point encryption for in-person card acceptance.}
  - {name: ISO/IEC 27001, note: Information Security Management System (ISMS) certification.}
  - {name: SOC 1, availability: gated, note: Report on controls over financial reporting.}
  - {name: SOC 2 Type II, availability: gated, cadence: annual, note: Report + quarterly bridge letters; also covers Simility (fraud prevention).}
report_access:
  portal: https://www.paypal-trustcenter.com/
  gating: Reports and bridge letters are downloadable after Trust Center verification (SafeBase NDA/verification flow).
  cadence: Compliance documentation and bridge letters updated quarterly.
notes: >-
  Venmo (a PayPal service) received PCI DSS certification against the v4.0.1
  standard per a recent Trust Center update.
