The Board only processes personal data for as long as necessary to accomplish the purpose for which we have collected it and within the limits provided for by the law if it allows a longer time.
More specifically:
- The personal data processed by the Board for the performance of its public-interest tasks and of the public authority with which the Board is tasked will be kept for as long as you are under the Board’s oversight, or for as long as the natural or legal person under our oversight with which you work or hold a position or have held a position is overseen by the Board. Even if this is no longer the case, the Board may still process your personal data for a longer time, for example in so far as that they may again become pertinent for the exercise of our oversight or as part of potential liability claims;
- Without prejudice to the storage periods that apply to the processing referred to above, the personal data the Board receives:
- to register you as a user of one of the business portals on the website will be kept for as long as you have an account on the application concerned;
- to be able to get in touch with you as part of a consultation will be kept until the project on which you have been consulted is closed (either because it has been finalized or because it has been definitively deleted, with the proviso that a project is not considered closed while it is being contested);
- to send you newsletters will be kept until you unsubscribe;
- to respond to any other request you may make, for example through the contact forms, will be kept for two years from the last response on our part;
- in the pre-contractual or contractual stage will be kept for the duration of the contract and for 10 years after the end of the contract. If no contract is entered into, your data will be deleted more rapidly;
- as part of your visit will be kept for 30 days.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board is subject to the Law of 24 June 1955 on archives, and some information is consequently kept for more time as provided for under this Law for archiving purposes, albeit with the appropriate guarantees.
