Data retention

How long an organisation keeps data, and its rules for deleting it afterwards. GDPR says personal data shouldn't be kept longer than needed.

A plain-English explanation of how this usually works, not legal advice. Rules differ between countries and change over time, so check your own situation. Disclaimer.
