Patron Privacy
From WCN
Patron Privacy requirement: Break the patron link with the request once the request has been completed.
Once an request has been completed by the system or staff member the patron details that were required to process the request need to be de-linked and or removed from the request record. Once the patron details have been removed from the request record the request record will be deemed cleared and it will be eligible for archiving.

[edit] Frequency
The Patron Privacy Job runs nightly and requires one parameter, PATRON_PRIVACY_DAYS located in the VDX_SYSGLOBS table. This parameter tells the script to clear patron details from requests that have been completed PATRON_PRIVACY_DAYS ago. For example the standard PATRON_PRIVACY_DAYS value is 60. The Patron Privacy Job will clear the patron details from all requests that have been completed 60 days ago.
[edit] What Gets Cleared
NRE does not delete records from its database. It does however remove patron details from the request made. The client_id (barcode), Client_name, Client_email and any address data if passed in the user object is removed from the request. No data is left in the request that can identify the patron who made the request.
[edit] Stats Hub
NRE uses a view that the Stats Hub uses once a month to collect request details for reporting. NRE will not send patron details to the Stats Hub by default. If the customer does want the barcode sent to the Stats Hub they will have to notify support where a configuration change can be done to allow this.
