  • Whether we are required to retain the information type in order to comply with legal obligations or contractual commitments, to defend against potential legal claims, or as otherwise necessary to investigate theft or other activities potentially in violation of Cherry’s policies and procedures applicable to you or against the law, to ensure a secure online environment, or to protect health and safety;
  • The privacy impact of ongoing retention on the consumer; 
  • The manner in which information is maintained and flows through our systems, and how best to manage the lifecycle of information in light of the volume and complexity of the systems in our infrastructure; and
  • To comply with Federal Record Retention Requirements.

Individual pieces of personal information such as those listed above may exist in different systems that are used for different business or legal purposes. A different maximum retention period may apply to each use case of the information.
