We will retain your personal information for as long as we deem necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable laws, or for as long as it is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected. We delete your personal data as soon as it is no longer needed and in any case after the expiry of the legally prescribed maximum retention period of five or ten years. Data that is no longer necessary and for which there is no legal obligation to retain data will be destroyed after the purpose and justification have ceased to exist.
