Data retention audits built for payment businesses.

From Kwai Chung we examine how long your firm keeps transactional records — and whether deletion claims survive a second look.

Retention schedule audit

Most retention findings begin as soft gaps between the matrix on paper and the purge jobs in production. We inventory payment data classes, map legal clocks, and hand back a corrected schedule with owners attached.

Typical duration 2–3 weeks. Informational pricing From HK$48,000.

“The deletion review forced our backup vendor to produce real purge attestations instead of policy copy.”

Jonathan Park — Head of risk, payment processor
