  • Deletion will not apply to historical activity logs or archives unless and until these logs and data naturally "age-off" the SWAYAM system.
  • SWAYAM does not track or index every time or every place on the Site when or where a learner may volunteer Personal Information, so neither SWAYAM nor University will be able to help you locate or manage all such instances.
