- Termination requires immediate deletion of every related record. ✓The buyer may need to preserve required records, so termination does not by itself establish immediate deletion of every related record.
- Residual vendor copies require documented handling decisions.Documenting handling decisions for residual copies supports controlled closure and does not conflict with record-preservation needs.
- Vendor access should be reviewed at termination.Reviewing and restricting access is a sensible termination control and remains relevant to the stated objective.
- Export and deletion terms should be checked before closure.Checking export and deletion terms helps preserve records and control vendor retention during contract closure.
The trap
Separate required record retention from unnecessary supplier access and copies when evaluating termination terms. How to remember it
