All the most important data that shouldn't be for my eyes -- is 256-bit encrypted as it gets entered into any database. All passwords and most user-inputted data is encrypted. Stripe takes care of the payment information which I don't store, but I do keep the expiration date in my database which usually cannot be used to identify anything. Definitely trying to be more GDPR-compliant as I take privacy and security very seriously. Wouldn't want my data exposed if I was using someone else's product and that is how I try to think when developing and encrypting the data.

Hopefully you're storing encrypted hashes and not simply encrypting passwords.

Is there another way to store them? Ha. All the hacks of major companies got me paranoid.
