To be clear: on our end we need buffer time that allows us to know that
should there be a bug we can reprocess pageviews if needed (this does
happen). That buffer time is now 60 days and perhaps it could be a bit
smaller but it is still going to be a matter of weeks, not days for which
the raw data needs to be available. As mentione earlier in the thread we
need raw IPs to geolocate requests, once that is done IPs are discarded.
