  1. How do I delete files in BoardVantage?

    Once the corporate secretary performs a simple delete on a document, the file and any of its copies are permanently and irretrievably removed from the servers.

  2. What happens after files are deleted?

    Any deleted data will be purged from the servers and backup media within 48 hours. BoardVantage does not maintain any other copies.

  3. How do I keep documents secure if a Director downloads them?

    With BoardVantage, Directors download to an encrypted and password-protected folder on their PC. So while locally stored content is readily accessible to the Director, it remains under central control of the Corporate Secretary.

  4. What happens when a Directors makes notes offline?
