Issue
I would like to know how frequently data is backed up in Sentry and how long this data is retained?

- All Sentry Users
Resolution
Quick answer:
Sentry retains event data in production for 30 days for free plans and 90 days for paid plans by default. Individual events are aggregated into broader issues. Individual events are deleted after the above retention period. When Issues are deleted all associated events are deleted.
We create regular backups of event data in production. We delete backups 90 days after creation.
