Afaik, Amplitude supports unlimited data retention right from their Free Plan onwards.
However, there are charting limits on how far you can go wrt time when visualizing your data in charts like Event Segmentation depending on your granularity.
eg. you can only visualize your daily metrics for the past 365 days. To increase the timeframe you would have to switch to weekly, which hits the max at last 52 weeks.
The highest granularity is quarterly which is capped at last 12 quarters. So essentially, at the moment you can graph a max of 3 year data with the quarterly granularity. Not quite sure if this depends on what plan you are on or is this a default cap.
If you are planning on having access and owning your raw data outside Amplitude, then here are a few options
Hope this helps!
Hi
A few additional notes:
Let us know if you have any questions!
A follow up question. Is it possible to change the setting for how long Amplitude stores the data and delete data older than e.g 6 months?
Kind regards

Hey
I don’t think this is currently possible within Amplitude UI as a self serve setting. But this could be something Amplitude Support can do on their backend for a customer if you reach out to them.
