Data Retention Schedule
Last updated: 21 April 2026
Creativemark retains transaction records, invoices, payout records, tax evidence, fraud evidence, and compliance logs for as long as required to meet legal, accounting, platform security, and dispute-defence obligations. Retention periods may vary by record type and jurisdiction.
- Order, invoice, and tax records: normally 7 years.
- Fraud and security logs: up to 24 months, or longer where linked to an investigation.
- Support records: normally 3 years after closure.
- Merchant compliance records: for the relationship term and a reasonable post-termination defence period.
When legal retention is no longer required, data is securely deleted or irreversibly anonymised.
