Help - Office 365 Backup Policy
Can someone please point me to the official O365 backup policy(link/document). I'm interested to know the backup policy for SharePoint sites and OneDrive on Office 365.
This is not something that is published publicly.
If you have a look on the Office 365 Trust Center they talk about service continuity and preventing data loss, but their responsibility is only to ensure that the service is operation and data is accessible - not responsible for the backup of individual customer sites/libraries/files.

I see a lot of references on the internet to the folllwing statement:
"Microsoft takes backups of site collections every 12 hours and keeps these backups for 14 days"
Is there any truth in this ?
