Doodle will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes it was collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, Doodle considers the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which Doodle processes your personal information and whether it can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
