could be wrong, but it was my understanding that the logs are maintained
indefinitely but the data is retained for only 3 months (i.e. the results
of the check that is recorded in the log).
The checkuser log are kept indefinitely, but it only records what
usernames/IPs that were checked (i.e. the query), and the reason given
by the checkuser for the check.
It does not record the results of the query.
That said, the sequence of checks run by a CU often creates a
permanent record in the private CU log of an persons likely IP
addresses. e.g. the log may contain a check on an account, with a
reason given, followed by checks on IPs, with the same reason logged.
