Abstract

A computer system provides transaction-level data retention policy inheritance. The system may perform operations including storing a first dataset comprising a plurality of transactions, each of the plurality of transactions comprising one or more data items; receiving a first transaction to the first dataset, the first transaction comprising one or more data items; determining a first retention policy for the first transaction; and storing the first retention policy with the first transaction. The system may further perform operations including calculating a deletion date for the first transaction based on the first retention policy; and storing the deletion date with the first transaction in the first dataset.
