| Newsletter subscribers | Until you unsubscribe (no upper limit) | Consent-based marketing under PECR; revocable by single click in every email. |
| Page views & raw analytics events | 90 days | Aggregated reporting only; pruned by scheduled job. |
| Comments / nominations / public submissions | Life of the parent record | Editorial and historic-record context. |
| DSAR (data subject) requests | 3 years from completion | Demonstrate compliance with GDPR Art. 30 record-keeping if challenged. |
| Audit logs (admin actions, role changes) | 7 years | Internal accountability + investigation window for security incidents. |
| Support correspondence (email) | 3 years from last contact | Quality assurance + complaint-handling. |
You can request earlier deletion under your right to erasure (see section 9, Your Rights). Some records may be retained longer if we have a legal obligation (for example, financial records held under HMRC rules) or a clearly stated statutory basis.
