Panopto Retention Policy

Currently, the Retention Policy at Canisius is as follows:

13 months after the last view of the video, it will be sent to Archive. After 4 years in Archive, the video will be permanently deleted. This totals a 5-year lifespan for videos on Panopto.

A video that is viewed at least once in the 13 month period will automatically reset the timer. Any videos in Archive can be unarchived if the video needs to be saved for some reason.

We reserve the right to change this policy.
