8.2. LionOBytes will comply with instructions from the Customer to delete certain Personal Data as soon as reasonably practicable and within a maximum period of 30 days, unless Data Protection Law (or, in the case the data is not subject to Data Protection Law, applicable law) requires further storage.

On expiry of the Agreement, Customer instructs LionOBytes to delete all Customer Data (including existing copies) from LionOBytes’s systems and discontinue processing of such Customer Data in accordance with Data Protection Law. LionOBytes will comply with this instruction as soon as reasonably practicable and within a maximum period of 30 days, unless Data Protection Law (or, in the case the data is not subject to Data Protection Law, applicable law) requires further storage. This requirement shall not apply to the extent that LionOBytes has archived Customer Data on back-up systems so long as LionOBytes securely isolates and protect such data from any further processing except to the extent required by applicable law. Without prejudice to this Section, Customer acknowledges and agrees that Customer will be responsible for exporting, before the Agreement expires, any Customer Data it wishes to retain after wards. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this DPA will survive the termination of this Agreement for as long as the LionOBytes retains any of the Customer Personal Data.
