I’m leaning towards option C since it mentions automatic clearing, but I’m unsure if recoverability is necessary for inactive data.

I feel like option D sounds familiar, but I'm not confident about whether applying row-based retention is the best method for this scenario.

I remember practicing a question about enterprise-wide settings, so maybe option B is the way to go for a broader approach.

I think the business unit data retention setting might be the right choice, but I'm not entirely sure if it applies to all data extensions.

I'm a little confused by the options. Is there a difference between the business unit setting and the enterprise-wide default? I'll need to double-check the details on those.

Okay, I've got it! The answer is to apply a row-based retention to each data extension, set to 12 months. That way, the inactive data will be automatically cleared after a year.

I'm putting my money on D. Row-based retention is the way to go - it's like taking out the trash on a schedule instead of waiting for it to pile up.

Hmm, D seems like the way to go. I wonder if there's a way to set a global default retention policy instead of doing it manually on each data extension? That would be a real time-saver.

A and B sound like they'd affect the entire business unit or enterprise, which might be overkill for just this use case. D is the way to go.

I'd go with D. Applying the retention setting during data extension creation is a proactive approach, and it's less likely to be overlooked than manually configuring each one later.
