Legal Question in Business Law in Virginia

Credit Card Numbers on Receipt

Are merchants required to ensure that their customer's credit card number do not show on the Merchant's copy of the receipt or at least only show the last 4 numbers of the credit card? If there is no requirement, are merchants required to have a policy/procedure in place to protect their customer's credit card number? Thanks!
