Claudia AI Data Retention Policies

Claudia AI data retention policies let account owners and admins control how long Claudia AI keeps meeting and phone call recordings and transcriptions. Each has its own policy, so you can keep one longer than the other to match your firm's compliance and record-retention requirements.

Both policies are off by default. Until you turn one on, Claudia AI keeps every recording and transcription, as it always has.

Deletion is permanent. A policy applies to existing and future recordings and transcriptions, including everything Claudia AI saved before you turned it on and content marked as private. Deleted content cannot be restored.

Each policy has its own retention period and deletion summary.


Before You Start

  • Only account owners and admins can change retention policies. Other users with access can view them.
  • Confirm how long your firm must keep recorded conversations and transcripts before you turn a policy on.
  • If your firm archives transcriptions, confirm that Smarsh archiving is set up. Each transcription is archived to Smarsh before it is deleted.
  • Claudia AI records calls and meetings to create notes, even when a policy deletes the recording right after. Follow your firm's client-consent requirements as usual.
