Why did Avast antivirus start to prevent access to https://my.opalstack.com/ ?

Why did the Avast antivirus started yeasterday 3rd of March to

(1) prevent access to https://my.opalstack.com/ ?

(2) interrupt and stop working at
(a) https://my.opalstack.com/routes/ ?
(b) https://my.opalstack.com/applications/ ?

and
(3) why did it warn that there might be security risks with users credit card information ?
(a) is our VISA card information safely protected by opalstack ?

and
(4) how did Avast finally after 4 hours decided that
(a) https://my.opalstack.com/ is safe
(b) https://opalstack.com/ is safe

We were able to access opalstack VPS server using SSH and FTP clients
i.e. the opalstack server was working fine.

(5) to have also Python access to opalstack.com services would help
if Avast prevents using the opalstack GUI,
see
"How to manage site routes with local Python ?"

Thanks in advance for any help!

dragonxi We don't store your credit card info anywhere in our systems, we pass it to Stripe (our billing processor).

I've no idea why Avast would have temporarily reported our dashboard as a security risk but I'm inclined to think that it was an error on their part.

I'll follow up on your other post as soon as I can.

Thanks for your answer, it's good to know our credit card info is safe - and in case Avast will prevent access to www.opalstack.com we can use the Python code you provided. What comes to the reliability and the security provided by opalstack platform we have no reasons not to trust it - no problems so far, rock solid platform performance backed with excellent customer support !
