Answer:

Here are some possible explanations:

• The "after 1 day / 1 week / ..." calculations for Purge all sample data: are based on the most recent successful sample, not the current timestamp. That means the most recent "1 day / 1 week / ..." worth of successful samples will be preserved if sampling is turned off or stops for some other reason. It also means that if there are no successful samples, nothing is purged.

• Safe mode may be on.

• The rental period may have expired.
