GDPR: Data Retention Requirement for Relevant Duration

What is Data Retention?

The data retention by definition means the collection and permanent storage of personal data, without first an explicitly stipulated storage purpose or reason is given. Inexplicit, however, these stored data should be made available to the public authorities, if against a certain person the suspicion of a serious criminal act exists and thus serve the enlightenment.
The purpose of the General Data Protection Regulation is to empower professionals in the management of the information they collect. It encourages to ask only the minimum of information and to protect the customers. So if in your business you can settle for a minimum of information, no need to ask your customers their date of birth, or their profession for example, which are so-called “sensitive” data.
