Yes, but it shouldn't be relied on, as individual Instance owners can do whatever they want. Including stop things from being deleted.
I think as on fresh install it's auto set to delete after 30 days though each admin can change that. Correct me if I'm worng.
This community doesn't take on support questions. Please see the sidebar for suggestions on where you can find support.
