We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including to fulfil orders, provide customer service and meet legal, accounting, tax, fraud-prevention and regulatory requirements.

Different categories of information may therefore be retained for different periods.

When personal information is no longer required, we will delete, anonymise or otherwise securely dispose of it where appropriate.
