1. From a best practices perspective, what is your backup retention policy?

Again it all varies on organization’s policies. As a general practice it’s always better to keep the database backups on the shared location (In the Data Center) at least for 2-3 days. Daily backups should be written to tape backups and should be retained for a month or so. Also as a preventive measure there should be monthly or bi monthly backups with a retention policy of minimum one year.
