Mixpanel will store event data for up to five years on all plans, including the Free plan. This means you can access up to five years of historical data for your tracked events, even on the free tier. User data is retained indefinitely unless you delete it yourself. However, please note that session replays (if you use Session Replay) are only stored for 30 days after ingestion on the Free plan, and there is no way to view a replay older than 30 days Mixpanel vs GA4 GDPR Compliance Session Replay Privacy.

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! 📚
Yes, you can export your data from Mixpanel before the 5-year retention period ends. Mixpanel provides several methods for exporting your data:
- Raw Event Export API: You can use the Raw Event Export API to export all your event data as JSONL. This method is suitable for high-volume exports and allows you to specify date ranges and filter by event if needed. Example usage and details are provided in the documentation Export Methods. - Data Pipelines Add-On: If you have the Data Pipelines add-on (available on Growth, Enterprise, or Startup plans), you can export your events to a data warehouse or cloud storage. This is useful for ongoing backups or large-scale exports Schematized Export Pipeline. - CSV Export from UI: For smaller datasets, you can export events or reports as CSV files directly from the Mixpanel UI Export Methods.
There are some limits and rate restrictions depending on the export method, but there is no restriction in the documentation that prevents you from exporting all your data before the 5-year retention period ends.
