# Customer Privacy

How to access on Fynd Commerce 
Commerce Panel → Sales Channel (select application) → Configuration → Customer Privacy

Ignore this option if you don't use the app in your physical stores.

## Introduction

Sellers typically collect a lot of customer data through apps during the buying process in their shopping store, and this data needs to be kept secure to prevent unauthorised access or misuse. PII (Personal Identifiable Information) masking helps to achieve this by concealing certain elements of the customer's data. For example, mobile numbers can be masked so that only the last few digits are visible, and email addresses can be masked to prevent spam or phishing attacks.

## Steps to mask Personal Identifiable Information

1. Go to **Settings** section of your sales channel (Refer Figure 1).
2. Click **Information Privacy**.
3. Turn ON the toggle button to hide/mask customer information on your website (Refer Figure 2). This will hide personal identifiable information such as mobile number, name, email ID, and so on.
Click **Know what's masked** to know more about list of masked attributes of customer information.
4. Click **Save**.
