When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it, or, if this is not possible, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives, then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process.
