ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The policy does not specify fixed retention periods for any personal data category, applying instead a general reasonableness standard with open-ended extensions for legal and business purposes, which may require evaluation against GDPR storage limitation requirements and applicable state law mandates.

⚠

Interpretive note: The practical adequacy of the retention standard under GDPR storage limitation requirements and CPRA disclosure specificity obligations depends on regulatory interpretation and enforcement guidance that is not resolved solely by the document text.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Under this clause, the duration for which LlamaIndex retains personal data is determined by LlamaIndex based on a reasonableness and purpose standard, without fixed timelines disclosed to users, and may extend beyond the primary collection purpose for legal or business reasons.

We will usually retain the personal data we collect about you for no longer than reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, and in accordance with our legitimate business interests and applicable law. However, if necessary, we may retain personal data for longer periods of time as required under applicable law or as needed to resolve disputes or protect our legal rights. To determine the appropriate duration of the retention of personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of personal data and if we can attain our objectives by other means, as well as our legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, and other applicable obligations.
