Explanation
PII (Personally Identifiable Information) is the broadest and most universally applicable category of regulated data when browsing e-commerce sites. It includes any information that can identify an individual - name, address, email, username, browsing behavior, etc. - all of which are collected during typical e-commerce browsing even before a purchase is made. PCI (Payment Card Industry) data applies specifically to payment card transactions, not general browsing. PHI (Protected Health Information) is specific to healthcare. GDPR is a regulatory framework (not a data type itself) applicable to EU residents. Because PII is collected continuously throughout the browsing experience and is the foundational category of protected data, it is the most important to consider.
