ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The retention period is tied to defined purposes rather than being indefinite, but a legal carve-out allows retention beyond those purposes when law requires or permits it.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Your personal information will not be kept indefinitely for its own sake, but may be retained longer than the policy's stated purposes if law requires or permits it.
