How long we keep data
We keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose it was collected, including responding to messages, maintaining records, meeting legal obligations, and resolving disputes.
Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the enquiry, the relationship involved, and any legal or administrative requirements.
