Data will also be blocked or deleted whenever a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need to continue storing the data to conclude or fulfill a contract.
The editorial team may also store data in order to secure illegal content and content posted on social media profiles of the project “Exoplanet Diversity” that violates the project’s netiquette. The identity of the authors of such content is therefore of interest.
