In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, traditional records retention schedules are no longer sufficient. As organizations face increasing recordkeeping requirements, emerging privacy rules, and the need to embrace AI, retention policies must evolve from a “check-the-box” task into a strategic policy that drives compliance, eliminates data minimization conflicts, and enhances productivity. Join Kaye Cyrus, Director of Legal and Compliance at Office Practicum, and Mark Diamond and Tom Mighell from Contoural, for this insightful Webcast to learn how to create a modern, compliant, and easier-to-execute records retention schedule. 

Key Takeaways: 

• Understand the elements of a modern schedule: Integrate compliance, privacy, and business value into your records retention policy. 
• Resolve data minimization and recordkeeping conflicts: Resolve potential conflicts between retention rules and privacy data minimization mandates. 
• Enable automation: Design a schedule that supports automated classification and disposition for improved efficiency. 
• Foster AI Alignment: Learn how a schedule can either help or hurt compliant use of generative AI. 
• Build consensus: Learn strategies to align business groups on what information to retain, how long to keep it, and what can and should be defensibly deleted.
