How long will you retain my data
​
We process data for as long as you are an active user and for 6 years after this. We will also, where you have consented to marketing, continue to sending you marketing whilst you are an active user. An active user is a supporter that has opened an email from us from us within the last 3 years. We will also remove you from our marketing lists where you have not engaged in the previous 3 years.
If you choose to opt out of marketing, we will remove you from our lists but keep a record of the fact that you have asked us not to send you direct marketing or to process your data indefinitely so that we can respect your request in future. Where we process personal data in connection with performing a contract or for a competition, we keep the data for 6 years from your last interaction with us.
​
We keep information relating to our suppliers and partners for at least 6 years following the contract, although we may hold it longer where required by law, such as for accounting purposes.
​
Where we process personal data to meet legal requirements, we hold this for as long as the law requires.
