ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The clause operationalizes data retention by conditioning it on purpose alignment and legal necessity rather than establishing fixed retention periods. This authorization permits indefinite retention for dispute resolution and agreement enforcement even after the customer relationship ends, subject only to legal requirements.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Users' Personal Information remains retained by Stash beyond the active service period if legal obligations, dispute resolution, or agreement enforcement justify continued retention. The terms do not establish a specific deletion timeline but instead permit retention based on these stated operational purposes.
