Legal hold creation + release
Place a legal hold on specific records or employees so retention rules don't delete them while litigation or investigation is active. Defensible in court; clean to release when the matter closes.
For the operator
Place a legal hold on specific records, employees, or data classes so retention rules don't delete them while litigation, investigation, or regulatory inquiry is active. The hold is auditable — who placed it, when, on what scope, with what reference. Release is just as auditable when the matter closes.
Business impact
Spoliation — accidentally destroying data subject to a preservation duty — is a litigation-disaster scenario that produces sanctions, adverse-inference rulings, and frequently case-determinative outcomes. Legal hold infrastructure prevents the failure at the platform layer rather than relying on people remembering manually, eliminating an entire class of enterprise-grade legal exposure.
