Retention and redaction

Choose how long transcripts live, and strip personal details as they arrive.

Use this when a contract says a transcript may not sit on a server for a year, and a phone number may not sit in one at all.

  1. Open Setup in the left rail, then Keeping data.

    The Keeping data section of Setup: how long raw content is kept, the masking switch, and the country masking reads numbers and postcodes for.
  2. Set How long raw content is kept, in days, and press Save.

    Shortening it deletes anything already past the new period, that night.

  3. Tick Mask personal details as they arrive.

    The confirmation says plainly that it changes arriving conversations only. It saves when you confirm.

  4. Choose the Country.

    It decides how phone numbers and postcodes are read, and it saves as soon as you pick it.

  5. Read the rows below it to see what each value is stored as.

Reading it right

  • Scores and results are not what gets deleted. They survive as counts and averages, so an old period keeps its figures after its transcripts are gone.
  • The original wording of anything masked is kept in a separate store only an admin can open, and every opening is recorded.
  • The audit report carries both settings as they stood when its figures were measured, which is what makes it worth handing to a regulator.
Note: The masked list is fixed, so nothing can be added here. Tell us what else you need masked and we change it on our side. There is also no consent log to export.
