We will hold the information you provide either while your account is in existence, or as needed to be able to provide the service to you, or for as long as is necessary to provide support-related reporting and trend analysis only.

 

If legally required or if it is reasonably necessary to meet regulatory requirements, resolve disputes, prevent fraud and abuse, or enforce our Terms and Conditions, we may also retain some of your information for a limited period of time as required, even after you have closed your account or it is no longer needed to provide the Services to you.
