Document Retention Policy
Equity will only retain copies of engagement contracts for seven (7) years. While our membership database will always have information regarding your engagements and related earnings, the physical and digital copies of the contract will be destroyed after seven years.
During the seven years: Engagement contracts that are stored physically off-site may be retrieved at a member’s request for a cost determined by the storage provider. This practice, which has been in place for some time, is unchanged. Engagement contracts that are stored digitally may be retrieved at a member’s request at no cost.
In compliance with the revised policy and schedule, engagement contracts dated January 1, 1994 to December 31, 2017 were destroyed as of April 7, 2025.
