Dell will retain the information you provide for at least 30 days (subject to local laws) so the EHS team may contact you to take appropriate action to protect the health and safety of individuals at Dell physical locations and to provide you with the requested support. Your status will also be shared on an anonymous basis with potentially infected individuals for contact tracing purposes.
