Data retention
Stackly keeps your click data (who clicked, when and from where) for a set time that depends on your plan. After that, the clicks move to an archive for 60 days, and then they're deleted.
Check how long your data is kept
- Click your name at the bottom of the left menu.
- Click Preferences.
- In the settings menu, click Data Retention.
The page shows three boxes:
| Box | What it means |
|---|---|
| Live analytics | How many days of clicks show in your dashboard on your plan, or Kept forever. |
| In archive | How many clicks are in the archive, and their dates. |
| Archive kept | 60 days. After that, archived clicks are deleted for good. |
How it works
- Every night, clicks older than your plan's window leave your dashboard and analytics.
- They stay in the archive for 60 days.
- Then they're deleted and can't be brought back.
To see the window for each plan, check Analytics History on the plans page under Billing & Plans.
Download archived clicks Growth+
- On the Data Retention page, go to Export archived data.
- Pick a start and end day, or leave both empty to get the whole archive.
- Click Request export.
- Under Your exports, click Download CSV.
The CSV file opens in Excel or Google Sheets. Times in it are in IST.
Before you downgrade
A lower plan may keep clicks for fewer days, so older clicks move to the archive sooner.
- Download any reports you need from Analytics.
- While you're still on Growth or higher, export your archive as a CSV.
- Then change your plan.
caution
Archived clicks are deleted after 60 days. Once deleted, they can't be recovered.
Good to know
- Downloading archived data is on Growth and higher plans. On other plans, you'll see Upgrade instead.
- You can request up to 5 exports a day.
- If your plan keeps all analytics, nothing is archived.
Troubleshooting
- "Nothing is archived yet" → None of your clicks are older than your plan's window yet.
- "There's no archived data in that range yet." → Pick dates inside the archive, or leave both empty.
