ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes Webull's operational framework for data lifecycle management post-account closure. The retention criteria create a standard whereby personal information persists in systems based on institutional requirements rather than automatic deletion upon account termination.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Users' personal information will remain in Webull's systems beyond account closure for periods determined by the company's assessment of legal, compliance, and operational needs. The duration is not specified as a fixed timeframe but rather as contingent on Webull's ongoing determination of necessity.

"
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process the information, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means.
