In the event of a personal data breach, the Website will take all actions required under applicable law.
Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and for any additional period required under applicable law.

Data relating to payments and transactions may be retained for the period required under applicable law, particularly tax and accounting regulations, which is generally five (5) years from the end of the calendar year in which the obligation to retain such data arose.
Once data has been irreversibly anonymized in a manner that no longer permits the identification of a user, such data may be retained and used without time limitation for statistical, analytical, research, and service development and improvement purposes.
