# The call log is a window, not an archive · Learn it in 5 minutes

- The call log report is the place people look for one call. The community article on filters, dated 14 July 2026, describes a window of about 60 days unless retention has been extended.
- Data-retention terms are a different clock: VCC audio is the sooner of 30 days, a successful SFTP or FTP offload, or the contract. A report row and a recording file do not expire on the same day. Say which one you mean.
