Contract: where processing is necessary to perform a contract with you or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to meet legal, accounting, contractual, or reporting requirements.
When determining retention periods, we consider the nature of the data, the purpose of processing, legal obligations, and whether a longer retention period is needed to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. When data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it securely.
