What it is

PII, or personal data, is any information that identifies a specific individual — a name, email, account number, or a combination that singles someone out. Handling it carries GDPR duties.

On the public ring

The public ring enforces a hard rule: no per-customer PII crosses it. Responses are public vocabulary or public-safe projections; the loyalty endpoint returns tier definitions, not a person’s tier; the biller endpoint omits bank fields entirely. You still control the data you send in an enquiry, so minimise it and collect consent. See Privacy and PII.

Frequently asked questions

Can I read a customer’s data from the public ring?

No. No per-customer PII crosses the public ring by design. Account data is served only behind authentication.
