How long will Patriot Relocation Corp keep my personal information?
We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant service, or as long as is set out in any relevant contract you hold with Patriot Relocation Corp. In the case that you wish to cancel your registration as a Patriot Relocation Corp member, once an account is deleted a red flag goes on the database and, while people cannot use the personal information, it stays on the system for a period of one year for administration purposes before being deleted automatically.
Where you contribute to Patriot Relocation Corp, Patriot Relocation will generally only keep your content for as long as is reasonably required for the purpose(s) for which it was submitted.
Patriot Relocation, as a publicly funded organisation, also has an obligation to record snapshots of history which may include some User Generated Content, i.e., content provided by users. Therefore, some content submitted to or shared with Patriot Relocation Corp may be retained for prolonged periods of time or potentially indefinitely in the Patriot Relocation Corp Archive, which is true of News contributions which are published. There may also be rare instances where we will share your contribution with third parties in the interests of maintaining historical archives.
Where possible, we will endeavour to inform you upfront or let you know at a later date where we are likely to keep content indefinitely or pass it onto an approved historical archive.

Under the Data Protection Act you have the right to request a copy of the personal information Patriot Relocation holds about you and to have any inaccuracies corrected. (We charge $20 for information requests and will require you to prove your identity with 2 pieces of approved photographic identification.)
