Add Data Retention Policies for a Country

The Data Management Center comes with a preconfigured set of data retention policies for each country in the European Union (EU). You can create additional policy sets for other countries as required.

To create a set of policies for a country:

1. Go to System Admin > Data Management Center, click the Person Management tab, and then click the Policies subtab.
2. Click Add.
3. Select an option in the Country of new Policies drop-down list. This is the country that you’ll add the set of data retention policies for.
4. Select an option in the Policy Retention Periods drop-down list to start with a copy of that country's existing set of policies. Although it's recommended to start with a copy of an existing set of policies, you can select Custom to start with all policies set to zero.
5. Update the values for each policy in the Retention and Period columns.
6. Click Continue.
7. Click Save.

The new set of policies is added to the list in the Person Management > Policies tab. You can enable them as you would for other existing countries. See Review and Manage Data Retention Policies.

You can also delete all of the policies for a country that you’ve added by selecting the country and clicking Delete.
