Beria, MZ, and anyone else who said three months is correct.

MZ is correct: 3 months is the purge for
Checkuser data.
As to the rest of it, Diederick van Liere, our resident guru of data,
will
be checking into this, and will confirm back when
we know exactly wht is
intended by the devs for that data. I will say that generally speaking,
the Foundation prefers to maintain the minimum data possible for the
shortest period of time.
Thanks,

The exact time is confidential.
Err, no, I don't think so. It's not defined in the files at
<http://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/>, which means it should be using the
default, as defined at
<

That's only CheckUser data, though. I'm not sure what David wants
confirmed
from the Wikimedia Foundation. Different data has
different expiries. A
lot
of it is permanent (e.g., revisions aren't
going anywhere for the most
part). I guess the question is specific to the ClickTracking extension:
