3.3.3 Rules for Applying Appropriate Retention Policy

You can apply multiple data retention policies that apply to the event data, including the Default
Data Retention policy. To determine how long an event is retained before being deleted from the
local and archive data stores apply the following rules:
1. If an event meets the criteria of only one data retention policy filter, that data retention policy is
applied to the event.
2. If an event does not meet the criteria for any of the data retention policies, the default data
retention policy is applied to that event.
