### POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORAGE OF RECORDS:

Electronic records are maintained in user-authenticated, password-protected systems. All records are accessed only by authorized personnel who have a need to access the records in the performance of their official duties.

### POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETRIEVAL OF RECORDS:

Records are retrievable by a combination of first and last name, email address, and other unique identifiers as configured by the program office for their program requirements.

### POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETENTION AND DISPOSAL OF RECORDS:

Records are retained for 10-year retention rule for all data contained within Google Drive and Google mail. There are exceptions for specific users as required by NARA, FOIA, and USAID Records Management.

### ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDS:

USAID safeguards records in this system according to applicable rules and policies, including all applicable USAID Automated Directive Systems (ADS) operational policies.

USAID ensures that the practices stated in the Google Workspace Privacy Impact Assessment are followed by leveraging standard operating procedures (SOP), training, policies, rules of behavior, and auditing and accountability.

Cloud systems are authorized to operate separately by the USAID AO at the moderate level. All USAID Users utilize two-factor authentication to access Google Workspace Applications.
