have data encryption applied.

Explanation: Payment card data must be protected (encryption at rest and in transit, or tokenization/truncation) and handled per PCI DSS. Hashing is typically not appropriate if the card number must be reused for transactions; cloud storage or arbitrary deletion schedules are not sufficient substitutes for proper encryption and compliance.
