Data Protection Settings#
Data Protection Settings allow administrators to configure privacy-related behavior for data retention and deletion.
These settings support compliance-oriented handling of stored information and help define how long data may remain in the system and how deletion can be requested.
To navigate to the Data Protection Settings:
- Open the menu.
- Scroll down to
Loechfristen.
The following screenshot shows this navigation path.

Deletion Periods#
The Deletion Periods setting allows you to define how long data should be retained before it is automatically deleted.
Users can enter a personal retention period in years. After the configured period has elapsed since data collection, the corresponding data is automatically deleted.
Use this setting when your organization needs a defined retention lifecycle for privacy or compliance reasons.
Once data has been deleted, it cannot be restored.
Deletion Request#
The Deletion Request setting allows users to submit a request for deletion of specific data they have entered.
This is intended for cases where data should be removed before the regular retention period expires or where a user explicitly requests deletion of certain records.
Once data has been deleted, it cannot be restored.
Typical Use Cases#
- Define automatic deletion after a fixed number of years.
- Support privacy-related cleanup processes.
- Handle manual requests to remove specific user-entered data.
- Reduce long-term storage of data that is no longer required.
