Can someone clarify something for me?

 

Is it legal to store details about plagiarism cases on a computer so that they can be referenced at a future date in case the same student is caught plagiarising again?

 

I’ve been told that the Data Protection Act prohibits this and computers have to be wiped clean each year.

 

Is that true?
