We will keep your personal information for as long as is necessary to perform the processing activity for that information, as long as is set out in any relevant contract you hold with us, or as required or allowed by law. The relevant retention period is determined on a case‑by‑case basis because it depends on things like the nature of the data, why it is collected, why it is processed, and any legal or operational retention needs. For example, we may retain your data for as long as you use our Service. When the relevant processing activity has been completed, we may destroy your data, or alternatively anonymize the data such that the data is not personally identifiable. We do not have any obligation or liability to you or any other party with respect to personal information that is deleted or destroyed.
