4. How long do we retain information and where does it go

 

How long your data will be retained depends on the legal basis relied upon to process your data. For example, data we process to perform our contract with you requires us to keep the data throughout the time you use the application. As long as you are an active user, we will retain and process this data. Data such as your account information and device information and identifiers fall into this category.

Data we process to promote our business interests, such as your usage of the application, is only kept for as long as needed for the purposes for which it was collected. For example, this data may be collected to perform analytics so we can develop improvements to the application, or we may process data to keep a record of enquiries you made through the application to improve your customer service experience.

In addition, we may also process your data based on your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we will continue to process data collected prior to your withdrawal until the purposes for which such data was collected have been achieved.

Please note, although we aim to retain your data for the time period described above, your data may be processed longer pursuant to applicable law. For example, if a specific statute mandates, we require a certain piece of data, we comply and retain that data until the required retention period expires.

 Your use of the application may involve the transfer, storage and processing of your personal information to other countries; such countries include, without limitation, countries in the European Economic Area. All international data transfers are subject to legal requirements to ensure that your personal information is processed safely and as you would expect.
