Staff_Email Retention Policy

As of January 5, 2021 Northcentral Technical College has adopted a new email retention policy which includes the following:

Automatically delete messages in the Inbox and Sent Items folders after 365 days
Permanently delete messages in the Deleted Items folder after 30 days
Automatically delete messages in the Junk E-Mail folder after 60 days

For emails that need to be retained for longer than one year, you must do the following:

Email stored in folders you create are not automatically deleted. However, you are required to delete emails that have satisfied their retention requirements and are eligible for destruction. Keeping emails that are beyond their retention period exposes you and the College to risk.

Please note that when making folders for you emails to be put in, the folder cannot be a child folder of the Inbox. New folders should be created under the Folders section.
