After the applicable retention period, we will either delete or anonymize your information. If deletion or anonymization is not possible, then we will securely store your information and isolate it from any further use until deletion is possible.
5.3 Minor Exceptions to the Above
In some cases, after you unsubscribe from an email newsletter or subscription account, we may retain your profile information for a commercially reasonable time for backup, archival, or audit purposes.
