The pricing link on the top doesn't refer to any pricing section on the page. Is it missing? Edit: This seems to be an internationalization problem. I am from India. The pricing section for Indian page https://stripe.com/en-in/identity#pricing is missing so the link doesn't work.

If Stripe were to get hacked who would pay the GDPR fine?
In their TOS and Privacy Policy it’s made clear they are also data controllers. Unless you contribute to the breach it would almost certainly fall on them.
