Legal & Compliance Use Case

Email compliance that doesn't slow you down

Regulatory email retention, eDiscovery readiness, and GDPR compliance, without the enterprise complexity. Evermail gives legal and compliance teams instant access to email archives with the controls they need.

The challenge

The compliance email archiving challenge

Regulatory requirements (GDPR, MiFID II, HIPAA, SOX, and others) mandate that organisations retain business email for defined periods, often 5 to 10 years. When a legal hold, regulatory inquiry, or data subject access request arrives, compliance teams need to produce specific emails quickly and accurately. Traditional approaches, such as shared inboxes, PST files on local drives, or basic email platform archives, are inadequate: they're hard to search, easy to tamper with, and slow to produce evidence from. A data breach or audit that requires producing email records in hours shouldn't take weeks.

The solution

How Evermail supports compliance teams

Retain, search, and produce email evidence, with the security and auditability that regulated industries demand.

🔐
Immutable WORM archive (coming soon)

Write-once, read-many (WORM) storage is coming soon to Enterprise. Once available, archived emails cannot be altered or deleted, supporting regulatory compliance and legal holds.
