Retention policy
Quick answer
A company's rules for how long each type of record is kept and when it is deleted.
Policies balance legal requirements, such as tax or employment records, against privacy rules that discourage keeping data longer than needed.
Licenses also set retention terms for the buyer, including deletion or return at the end of the term.
