6. Data Retention

hbo9 retains your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with legal, regulatory, and business requirements.

Specific retention periods include:

• Account Information: While your account is active, we retain all account data. After account closure, we retain basic account details for 5 years to comply with financial regulations and anti-money laundering laws.

After the applicable retention period expires, your personal information is securely deleted or anonymized so that it can no longer be associated with you. Anonymized data may be retained indefinitely for statistical analysis and research purposes, but such data cannot identify you personally.

7. Your Privacy Rights

As a user of hbo9, you have the following rights regarding your personal information:

7.1 Right to Access

7.3 Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten")

You may request deletion of your personal information in certain circumstances, such as when the data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.

7.7 Right to Withdraw Consent

Where we process your personal data based on your consent (such as for marketing communications), you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal.
