The length of time we will store personal data

We aim to keep your personal data for the minimum period of time possible in all cases but in some instances it may be necessary to retain it for longer than your instructed work is being worked upon by Chambers and the Barristers who work for or with Chambers.
Our aim is in all cases to destroy all personal data that could lead to the identification of its subject within 6 years and that once the work we have been instructed to perform has been completed any such data that is retained before destruction will only be retained in an anonymized format.
Your right according to the GDPR

The data subject may also object to the processing of their data at all or request a restriction on the processing of their data by Chambers, it should be noted that such a request may have an effect on Chambers ability to communicate with that person or to carry out instructions to chambers to perform work.
