Last Updated: July 31, 2024

1. Introduction

This Data Retention Policy explains how Zliptron retains, stores, and deletes personal data and other information collected through our services. We are committed to retaining data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with our legal obligations.

2. Scope

This policy applies to all data collected by Zliptron through our website, services, and communications with users, including:

3. Retention Periods

3.1 Active User Data

Data associated with active user accounts is retained for the duration of the account relationship and as long as the account remains active. This includes profile information, preferences, and service usage data necessary to provide our services.

3.2 Inactive Accounts

Accounts that remain inactive for a period of 24 months may be subject to review. We may contact users to confirm whether they wish to maintain their account. If no response is received within 60 days of notification, the account and associated data may be deleted.

3.3 Closed Accounts

When a user closes their account, personal data is deleted within 90 days unless retention is required for legal, regulatory, or legitimate business purposes. Some information may be retained in anonymized or aggregated form for analytical purposes.

3.4 Communication Records

Records of communications, including support requests and feedback, are retained for 36 months from the date of the last interaction to maintain service quality and resolve potential disputes.

3.5 Financial Records

Transaction records, invoices, and payment information are retained for a minimum of 7 years to comply with accounting and tax requirements.

3.6 Technical Logs

Server logs, security logs, and technical diagnostic data are retained for 12 months unless required for ongoing security investigations or system integrity purposes.

3.7 Marketing Data

Contact information used for marketing purposes is retained until consent is withdrawn or the user unsubscribes. Unsubscribed contacts are maintained in a suppression list to prevent future contact.

4. Legal and Regulatory Retention

5. Data Deletion Procedures

5.1 Automated Deletion

We employ automated systems to identify and delete data that has exceeded its retention period. These systems run on a regular schedule to ensure timely removal of outdated information.

5.2 Secure Deletion

When data is deleted, we use secure deletion methods to ensure it cannot be recovered or reconstructed. This includes:

5.3 Anonymization

In some cases, rather than deletion, we may anonymize personal data so that it can no longer be associated with an identifiable individual. Anonymized data may be retained indefinitely for analytical and research purposes.

6. User Rights

Users have the right to:

7. Data Storage and Security

Throughout the retention period, we maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect data against unauthorized access, loss, destruction, or alteration. Security measures are regularly reviewed and updated to address evolving threats.

8. Third-Party Data Processors

When we engage third-party service providers to process data on our behalf, we ensure they maintain data retention practices consistent with this policy and comply with applicable data protection requirements. We require contractual commitments regarding data retention and deletion.

9. Backup and Disaster Recovery

Data included in backup systems for disaster recovery purposes may persist beyond standard retention periods until the backup media expires or is overwritten. Backup retention does not exceed 90 days for operational backups and 7 years for archival backups required for regulatory compliance.

10. Policy Review and Updates

This Data Retention Policy is reviewed annually and updated as necessary to reflect changes in our practices, services, or legal requirements. Material changes will be communicated to users through our website or direct notification.
