Where necessary, this period may be extended by up to a further 60 days.
The persons to whom this Policy applies are under no statutory or contractual obligation to provide personal data to us. However, should you decide to submit personal data to us, you will have the following rights, as a data subject, under data protection law as summarised below:
• the right to be informed
• the right to access

Retention Period
In respect of personal data within the scope of this Policy, we will retain such personal data until you advise us to securely dispose of it, or until it becomes outdated, or it is no longer appropriate for us to retain such data. It is your responsibility to inform us of any material changes to your personal data to ensure it is accurate. Outdated personal data will be periodically deleted in accordance with our internal data retention policies. However, we will keep certain data, for example playlists, purchased oiids, and account information so long as you remain a user of the App.
Subject to receiving a request from you, we will delete or anonymize your personal data so that it no longer identifies you, unless we are legally entitled or required to maintain certain personal data, for example, an unresolved issue relating to your App account, information required for legal, tax or audit purposes, or where we have a legitimate interest in retaining personal data, such as fraud prevention or deterrence or to maintain the security or privacy of other individuals.
Security Measures
We have taken appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure our own and our suppliers’ information security standards are appropriate to the risks associated with the personal data processing we undertake. Our security objectives include guaranteeing the confidentiality, integrity and availability of personal data and the resilience of the systems that process it. We have introduced policy standards such as pseudonymisation, encryption and retention policies to minimize the risk of a personal data breach. We have also put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
It is your responsibility to keep the password provided to you on registration secure and confidential at all times. We will not be held liable for any breach of data protection law arising from your improper use of the App, or due to your password details being disclosed to any third party, or your failure to exercise control over your App account settings. In the event you have reason to believe your interactions with us are not secure, or the integrity of your login has been compromised, please contact us immediately.

We work solely with world-class suppliers, some of whom have branches outside the European Economic Area (‘EEA’). Any transfers of your personal data outside the EEA take place only subject to appropriate safeguards as provided in data protection law.
