Personal information is retained for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, comply with applicable legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods are determined based on factors including: the duration of our ongoing business relationship with you; applicable legal and regulatory retention requirements, including but not limited to FDA record-keeping obligations and GMP documentation standards; and whether retention is advisable in light of our legal position, including with respect to applicable statutes of limitations, litigation, regulatory inquiries, or audit requirements.
