Every piece of content on the website comes with additional information called meta data, which includes details like where it came from and how long it's valid for. If we're not sure how long something should stay up, we'll set a default expiration date of ten years from now. Once something's past its expiration date, we won't show it on the website anymore.
Certain types of content, like announcements, tenders or job postings, are only shown on the website if they're still valid. For other things, like documents or forms, we need to regularly check if they're still accurate and up-to-date, based on our Content Review Policy.
When content reaches its expiration date, we need to archive it properly. Certain things like government forms or services that are no longer available should be removed entirely from the website. Different types of content have different rules about how they're added to and removed from the website, which are outlined in our Entry/Exit Policy and Archival Policy as enlisted below.
