ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

An active account means Grindr retains the associated data indefinitely with no automatic expiry, regardless of how long ago the data was created.

Interpretive note: The word 'generally' introduces a qualifier suggesting exceptions may exist, but no exceptions are stated in the excerpt. This is noted but cannot be elaborated upon.
