6. How Long We Keep Your Information
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including satisfying legal, accounting, contractual and reporting requirements.
The appropriate retention period may vary depending on the type of information, why it was collected and any legal obligations that apply.
When information is no longer required, we will take appropriate steps to delete it or securely dispose of it.
