However, despite the fact that at first glance everything seems to be advantages, we have to take into account that this can pose a risk to our information and our privacy since we do not expose the theft of this data if we do not take the necessary precautions for it. It is possible that our credit card number has been stored on different websites, since in many cases it is registered without hardly realizing it.
