|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Mailing list subscriber | Email address | Sending marketing emails, news, updates and event announcements | Consent (Article 6(1)(a) UK GDPR) | Duration of active subscription, plus 2 years inactivity before suppression review | Delete from internal mailing list database |
| 2 | Consent records | Email address, date/time of sign-up, consent wording shown at sign-up | Proof that valid consent was obtained | Legal obligation / Legitimate interests | 3 years from date of sign-up, or 1 year after unsubscribe — whichever is later | Delete from records |

Active subscriber: An active subscriber is one who has not unsubscribed and has either opened or clicked an email, or signed up within the last 2 years. Dormant subscribers should receive a re-engagement email before removal.
Suppression lists: Under PECR, a permanent record must be kept of anyone who opts out, so they cannot accidentally be re-added to the mailing list. Do not delete these records.
Annual review: This schedule should be reviewed annually or whenever data collection practices change.
