How Long Do We Keep Your Personal Data For? 

We will keep your personal data for as long as we need it for the purpose it is being processed for.

We will keep your personal data for as long as we need it for the purpose it is being processed for. For example, when you register for a program with us we will keep your data, so we can perform the specific contract you have entered and after that, we will keep the personal data for a period which enables us to handle or respond to any complaints, queries or concerns relating to that program.

Your data may also be retained so that we can continue to improve your experience with us and to ensure that you receive any new program or activities or services which you would be interested in.

We retain the identifiable data we collect directly for targeting purposes for as little time as possible, after which we employ measures to permanently delete it.

We will actively review the personal data we hold and delete it securely, or in some cases anonymize it, when there is no longer a legal, business or client need for it to be retained.
