We keep personal data for different lengths of time, depending on the reason it was collected and the services it was used by.
Sometimes the law will specify how long we have to hold personal data for, in other cases we will determine the length of time.
You can find detailed information on how long we keep personal data in our Records Retention and Disposal Schedule, available on our How long do we keep records for? page.
