As an EU-based controller, Dquadrant relies exclusively on the legal bases set out in Article 6(1) GDPR — never on an "opt-out" model. Data is retained only for as long as needed to deliver the relevant part of the Service; the only exception is where the law requires us to keep specific records for longer (e.g. Dutch tax law).
