When is UCAS deleted?

Does ucas delete the applications of confirmed students (i.e 2015 entrants who will be starting in 2 weeks) or does ucas keep your application forever?

Just wondering for example lets say in a few years you want to apply for a graduate degree, will you be able to use the same ucas profile/account or would have ucas delete your profile completely and you have to create a new one?

If you were to apply for a graduate degree, you'd do it via the university opposed to UCAS, unless it was a teaching course or similar.

As RF says, postgrad applications are not made through UCAS, so it's not an issue, but records are kept and your UCAS ID would be used to match up any future application against your current one. This is how they avoid flagging up any reused parts of your ps as plagiarism.
