How long does UK ICF retain my data after membership ends?

We retain your personal data for 6 years after your membership ends.

Different types of data have different retention periods:

• Membership records: 6 years after membership ends

• Credential records: 10 years after credential expiry

• Event registration data: 2 years after event date

• Financial records: 6 years from end of financial year

• Volunteer and board management records: 6 years from end of term

• Ethics complaint records: 7 years after case closure

• Marketing preferences: Until opt-out plus 1 year

After these periods, we will securely delete or anonymise your personal data. Anonymised data (where you can no longer be identified) may be retained for longer for trend analysis and reporting purposes.
