How long does D2L retain statistical data?

We are exploring the reports in the Data Hub in greater detail and were wondering how far back does the data go in time? Back in our old Blackboard Original system, we could only get data as far back as 180 days from the present day so it wasn't all that helpful for assessing long-term trends.

Data Hub and Analytics Builder are quite powerful but only as good as the data it retains. Does the data go back in perpetuity or is there a fixed time after which it is purged?

    All datasets will retain the most recent 150 million rows of data. (Some datasets used to have a limit of 3 years of data, but this is no longer the case).
