Data retention period

France Aspiration retains data for a period of three years following the end of the relationship with the prospect, and for five years following the end of the relationship with the customer.

Therefore, the customer will need to create a new account if they wish to reorder from France Aspiration. All previous orders and invoices will no longer be accessible.
