Teams Chat Messages - Retention by default

Hello,

if we do not define a retentionpolicy for Teams Chats (1:1 and in Teams) how long these are saved.

Does anything happens over time ? The Files shared depends on the backend onedrive / sharepoint.

Is there a powershell command to verify the settings.

 

Best regards
