Data Retention
We will not keep your personal data for longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it is processed. We use the following general criteria to determine retention periods:

Professional advisers such as accountants or legal advisers, where necessary to obtain professional advice or comply with legal requirements.
Public authorities or law enforcement agencies where required by law, or where we need to protect our rights or the rights of others.
Where we use processors, we ensure that appropriate contracts and safeguards are in place to protect your personal data.
