Microsoft Purview Retention Policies: Keep What You Must, Delete What You Should
Keeping data forever is a liability. Deleting it too soon can be a violation. We configure Purview retention and compliance policies so your records follow the rules automatically, and you can prove it.
Compliance and Retention Policies
- Price

Records management with disposition review scoped separately.
The problem
Regulations, contracts and insurers all set rules for how long you keep email, files and chats. Most businesses either keep everything forever, which makes every breach and lawsuit bigger, or rely on staff to delete things manually, which never happens consistently. When a legal hold or audit request arrives, nobody knows where to look.
The solution
We map your obligations to a simple retention schedule, then enforce it with Purview retention policies and labels across Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams. We turn on audit logging and set up eDiscovery so you can find, hold and export records when you need to.

- Retention requirements workshop (industry, state, contractual)
- Written retention schedule for your records
- Retention policies for email, files and Teams
- Retention labels for records that need special handling
- Unified audit log enabled and retention extended where licensed

This project is right for you if
You keep everything forever
Years of email and files nobody needs, all of it exposed in a breach or discoverable in a lawsuit.
Rules apply to your records
Industry, state or contract rules say how long you must keep certain documents.
A legal request would be chaos
Nobody knows how to place a hold or export mail for a specific person and date range.
The cost of waiting: the data you no longer need is still data you have to protect, disclose and pay to store. Retention turns that liability off automatically.
Be ready for the audit before it is scheduled
Fixed price. Clear schedule. Policies that run themselves.
