HOW LONG DO WE PROCESS YOUR INFORMATION FOR?

In most cases we will process your information only for as long as required to provide the services or until you close your account or ask us to stop processing your information.

You can ask us to stop processing your information or change the way in which we use it by emailing queries@F1t Cloud .net

There are some exceptions to this, however. We may have other lawful grounds for processing your information (for example, to comply with our statutory or regulatory duties or the orders of a court). For example, we might be required to retain your personal data for a longer period (usually up to six years after you close your account or tell us to stop but this may vary depending on the territory in which you use the service) in order to comply with applicable law, tax obligations or regulatory requirements and for the establishment, exercise and defence of legal claims. This might apply to information about the transactions you make, when and where you make transactions and the information we hold about you for fraud and other crime prevention purposes. If we do retain your information in this way, we will cease other forms of processing and we will continue to keep your information secure.

You have an absolute right to object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing. You also have the right to recall your prior given consent.
