DataRetention
How long records must be kept (sometimes a legal minimum) and when they must be deleted.
Why we need this / what value this brings
Keeping data forever is both a cost and a liability (more exposure if breached); deleting too early can violate legal retention minimums.
When to use this
Define this per data category before volume makes 'just delete everything old' a risky, hard-to-audit decision.
How to use or implement this
Set an explicit retention period per data type (financial records often have a legal minimum), and automate deletion/anonymization past that window.
