 Language Compatibility
 ----------------------
 
+{+driver-short+} supports both CPython and PyPy.
+
+When a version of Python is marked end-of-life (EOL), the next minor release of
+{+driver-short+} drops support for that version. The driver offers the
+following ongoing support for EOL Python versions:
+
+- **CPython**: The last minor {+driver-short+} version compatible with the EOL CPython
+  version receives critical bug fixes for one year.
+- **PyPy**: {+driver-short+} doesn't support PyPy versions past their EOL date.
+
 The following compatibility table specifies the recommended version of
 {+driver-short+} for use with a specific version of Python.
