Was this just Paytm's history, or all of your digital payments history (ie all transactions outside Paytm)?

I'm guessing it's the former, but I'm just too paranoid to not ask...

Yes, it's the former.

Interesting, thanks.

The fact that PayTM doesn't guard sensitive personal data even when it's a local tech behemoth makes me not want to use digital payments and switch to cash.

Except there's no evidence that they don't guard sensitive personal data other than an unsubstantiated post.

Why are you advocating sensitivity to the giant corporation here? If there's a defense its "we don't allow random employees to access these records, and anytime an access is performed we audit the access including interviewing the responsible employee and reviewing call recordings. If the access was for anything other than an approved reason we fire the employee."
