Compliance archive

What this is

Observations older than 90 days are automatically archived to long-term storage. The Archive page lets you query these historical records when you need to look back further than the main compliance view allows.

When you'd use it

• When preparing evidence for an audit that covers a period more than three months ago.
• When a client asks about AI use on a matter that closed some time ago.
• When investigating a historical incident.

Walkthrough

1. Click Archive in the sidebar under Governance.

1. Choose a date range using the preset buttons (7d, 14d, 30d, 90d) or click Custom to set specific dates.
2. Optionally filter by sensitivity, track, or user.
3. The table shows archived observations with the same columns as the main compliance view (date, user, tool, sensitivity, track, matter, status), plus the archive date.
4. Click the drill-down icon on any row to see the full archived record.

Things to know

• Archived records contain the same compliance metadata as live records. Content (e.g. message bodies) is never stored in either place.
• Archive retrieval can take a few seconds longer than live queries because it reads from long-term storage.
• The archive is retained for the length of your firm's regulatory retention period.
