SECURITY AND FRAUD PREVENTION

ECM Tech Center uses the following security measures in transactions:

  • SSL/TLS certificate active across the entire site, verifiable by the padlock icon in the address bar;
  • Card tokenization: data is converted into a token by the payment processor and never travels in plain text through our servers;
  • Anti-fraud analysis performed by partner platforms, based on browsing behavior, geolocation and transaction history;
  • Identity verification for high-value orders or those showing signs of registration inconsistency.

In the event of a suspicious transaction, ECM Tech Center may request identification documents before confirming the order, under art. 6, III, of the CDC (Código de Defesa do Consumidor, Brazilian Consumer Protection Code) (right to adequate and transparent information).


CHARGEBACK (payment dispute)

The customer has the right to dispute an improper charge directly with their credit card issuer. In chargeback cases, ECM Tech Center will submit to the card issuer all transaction documentation: quote approved by the customer, technical report, proof of delivery and communication history. The documentation is retained for 5 (five) years for this purpose.

In the event of a payment dispute (chargeback) relating to services actually performed with documented customer approval, ECM Tech Center will submit to the card issuer all supporting documentation: approved quote, technical report, proof of delivery and communication history. The documentation is retained for 5 years for this purpose.


INVOICE AND TAX DOCUMENTATION

ECM Tech Center will issue a Nota Fiscal de Serviço (NFS-e, electronic service invoice) for repair services and a Nota Fiscal de Produto (NF-e, electronic product invoice) for the sale of modules, in accordance with applicable tax legislation. For corporate customers, the CNPJ (Brazilian company tax ID) must be included in the order registration. The invoice is sent by e-mail after the service is completed or the product is shipped.

Customers who require special billing conditions (invoice against a purchase order, specific data for ERP) should contact Customer Service before completing the order.
