For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the ordering process, along with the information about your order, will be sent to Apple in encrypted form.

After payment is made, Apple will send your device account number and a transaction-specific dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm payment success.

Apple retains anonymized transaction information, including approximate purchase amount, date and time, and whether the transaction was successfully completed.

When you use Apple Pay on iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase made through Safari on Mac, the Mac and the authorization device communicate over an encrypted channel on Apple's servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that personally identifies you. You can disable the ability to use Apple Pay on your Mac in your iPhone's settings.
