Hi,
from this article "https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Restore-deleted-items-from-the-site-collection-recycle-bin-..." I would assume, that when a SITE, LIST, LIBRARY or DOCUMENT gets deleted, it stays 90 days in the Site Recycle bin, then it gets moved to the Site Collcetion RB and there it stays for ADDITIONAL 30 days. This would mean a total of 120 days. I would also assume that a deleted site collection is kept for "only" 30 days in recycle bin.
Am I right?
This (old) blog post "https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/akieft/2012/01/09/restore-options-in-sharepoint-online/" says that a file (etc.) is kept for 93 (this might explain the "approximately" in the support article) days at maximum (in both recycle bins thogehter).
Thanks for a clarification!

Thanks, I suggest somebody rethinks the wording in the support article and gets rid of the onprem stuff in the SPO part ... ;)
