Ooh, data retention policies, my favorite! I vote for D - set it and forget it, baby. No more stagnant data haunting the server rooms.

A or B might be easier to set up, but D seems like the most robust solution in the long run. Why go for half measures when you can do it right?

C looks interesting, but I'm not sure if 'recoverable' is really what NTO wants. Better to just clear it out completely after 12 months.

I'd go with option D. Applying a row-based retention to each data extension is the most targeted approach.

But wouldn't setting inactive data to be automatically cleared after one year be more secure?

D seems like the way to go. Clearing inactive data automatically is a must for NTO to keep things tidy.
