Data & deployment

# Know what happens to your information

A useful deployment record answers six questions: what the system is for, where its components run, who can access it, how answers are checked, what it costs and who is responsible.

Document the locations of source files, indexes, models and logs. Include external connections, support access, backup locations, retention and deletion arrangements. Test access boundaries before expanding the source set.

Ask for assurance evidence that applies to the supplier, service and configuration being proposed. An on-premises option does not by itself establish certification, regulatory compliance or an offline deployment.
