Safeguards may include limiting access to information, using appropriate records management practices, securing electronic systems, and training staff or volunteers who handle personal information.

Retention

Personal information is kept only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose it was collected, or as required for legal, accounting, operational, safety, reporting, or recordkeeping purposes.

When information is no longer required, it will be securely destroyed, deleted, or anonymized where appropriate.
