Implementing & Maintaining Data Retention Policies

Introduction

Businesses of all sizes handle data and information from confidential information and corporate records to employee and customer personal data.

Retention periods vary depending on the category of data, and for personal data, the GDPR simply requires it to be ‘kept no longer than is necessary’.

This webinar, presented by data protection expert Robert Bond, will guide you through the process of developing and maintaining a data retention policy with the focus on personal data.

What You Will Learn

This webinar will cover the following:

• Understanding your data estate
• Recognising that different retention periods apply to different personal data

• Building and maintaining the retention policy

This pre-recorded webinar will be available to view from Thursday 7th May 2026
