SVAI performs automatic website backups. They store all backup files in their own facilities instead of the customer’s allocated disk space so that they can have more space for day-to-day use on their websites. They retain each day’s copy of the website for 30 days. Additionally, following the end of a customer’s paid period, SVAI stores all of their website files for a period of 30 days, after which the backup files are deleted.
