-====== IQXanywhere Backup and Data Retention Policy ======
- WIP \\
-  * Each Client's IQX database is a separate, heavily encrypted, database, with a unique encryption key.
-  * A stand-by copy of your database is maintained on a separate recovery server (coming soon - in a separate physical data centre) . When you make changes, the changes are replicated to the stand-by server continuously and applied to your stand-by database every few minutes. This means that even in the unlikely event of a serious problem with the primary server, your database can be restored to just before the time of failure.
-  * Every evening a complete copy of the changes made during the day is taken and applied to the stand-by database. This keeps the primary server tidy and re-starts the continuous replication of changes afresh. At this point the stand-by database is validated to ensure that it is free of errors.
-  * Each of the above steps is duplicated into a separate "safe copy" folder on the recovery server.
-  * Once a week a new "safe copy" folder is started and the previous two are retained.
-  * Regular back-ups of the latest "safe copy" folders are made to a secure location, in a different physical location and managed by a different provider.
