Legal compliance in data retention is not about what you have to keep, but knowing what you can delete. Even in a "paperless" age, the cost of storage is expensive. For any business it is not practical to keep everything, and a balance needs to be met.

However, pressure to cut costs cannot compromise on data storage and compliance, as shortcuts are often regretted later down the line.

In addition to economic and market pressures, companies must ensure their policies are up to date with improvements in data storage technology.
