Hi All,
As promised, here is a more direct response to Morteza’s original question: *“...she is just curious to know whether all her emails will be completely wiped out or will be kept on the servers for specified number of years?”* Faculty and staff can retain their bConnected Google account by signing up for the Retiree bMail Service. If a retiree does not sign up for the retiree service, their account will be deactivated. At that point, the retiree should have no expectation of being able to retrieve old email. To re-affirm my statement earlier in response to Charles’ post, here is our FAQ for “Can Google sell, monetize, or otherwise use my email or data stored with my bConnected Google account? <https://bconnected.berkeley.edu/privacy-security/google-apps-privacy-faq#what_datamonetize> ” *The agreement that UC Berkeley utilizes for its Google Apps for Education Service (including bMail, bCal, Drive, and others) does not allow for Google use of our data for any purposes other than to fulfill its obligations to deliver the service to us under our agreement. UC Berkeley does not believe that scanning for the purpose of serving ads anywhere is an allowed use under our agreement.* For more details, please refer to our extensive Google Apps Privacy FAQ <https://bconnected.berkeley.edu/privacy-security/google-apps-privacy-faq>. If you have specific questions, feel free to contact us directly at bconnec...@berkeley.edu Best Regards, Jon Hays Service Manager, bConnected [image: University of California, Berkeley] *Jon Hays* Service Manager, bConnected Collaboration Services IST-Architecture, Platforms & Integration (API) jonmh...@berkeley.edu | 510-672-5493 <http://www.linkedin.com/in/jonmhays> <http://twitter.com/vcrkid> <http://plus.google.com/+JonHays-Berkeley> On Wed, Apr 13, 2016 at 7:49 AM, Jon Hays <jonmh...@berkeley.edu> wrote: > Hi all, > > Still traveling to work, so my initial response will be brief.
