WHM back up retention question

Hi:
Just wondering about how the backup in WHM works as far as data retention. For example, if I select the "daily backup" option, does
- WHM create a new backup for each day every day moving foward until the drive it uses is filled up, OR
- WHM creates a backup for each day of the week, overwriting the previous week's same day data.

It just overwrites the old with the new day or week or month.
