How long we store your personal data
When you terminate your subscription with Storytel, your data will be stored and processed with us for a certain period of time after that.
Personal data which is collected and processed for marketing purposes is processed for as long as you have a subscription and twelve (12) months after your subscription has ended after being terminated.
For Storytel to be able to control, for example, use of gift cards, free trials and prevent misuse, personal data will be saved for twenty-four (24) months after the termination of the subscription. This also makes it easier for you to resume your listening and continue with your bookshelf if you choose to do so.
Keep in mind: Storytel may store data for longer if required by law or if required in order to preserve Storytel’s legal interests, for example if there are ongoing legal proceedings.
