Data retention is the period that Vonage stores interaction content for in an account. Your account’s contracted data retention period determines your maximum retention period. When Vonage has stored interaction content for the retention period, Vonage deletes it.

The administrator can change the data retention settings for interaction content such as call recordings, transcripts, or categorization results.

Automatic deletion states

• On
  When automatic deletion is On, interaction content is being automatically deleted according to retention settings.
• Pending
  An automatic deletion state of Pending indicates that retention settings have changed or automatic deletion has been turned on within the past 30 days. While automatic deletion is pending, the administrator can verify the retention settings and make further changes if required. If the administrator changes the settings, the 30 days is reset; automatic deletion will be in the Pending state for 30 days. Interaction content is not automatically deleted while automatic deletion is in Pending state.

• Paused
  When automatic deletion is Paused, no interaction content is being automatically deleted. Automatic deletion is paused if Vonage changes the contracted data retention period for your account. An administrator can also manually pause automatic deletion. 

  Note
  Automatic deletion must not remain in paused for a prolonged period. You must contact your account manager if you want to change your contracted data retention period. After 30 days, Vonage reserves the right to turn on automatic deletion using the current contracted value.
