User requesting shorter retention of Audit Logs

[thinkocapo]

Problem Statement

Today is 2025 and you can see Audit Log activity back to 2017

Ask: can it be limited to 1 year? By Sentry staff or if the customer could configure it themselves.
Why: A legal requirement they have (industry regulation)

Solution Brainstorm

Provide an in-product option for making it 1 year. Or can contact Support and maybe a behind-the-scenes Feature Flag could update it.

While this isn't something we plan to prioritize in the near term, I'm following up internally to understand more about whether it's something we could potentially support in the future.

@thinkocapo can you say more about the regulations? It's surprising that a regulatory requirement would require deletion of audit logs, they seem like something which would be the most justifiable data to retain.
