Unless you have setup an ILM policy to explicitly delete indices, Elasticsearch will not do this itself. So something else must be asking for it to be deleted. How does the data get into Elasticsearch?

You should upgrade to 6.8 (or 7.X) and get free Security, to limit access and protect your data - [https://www.elastic.co/blog/security-for-elasticsearch-is-now-free](https://www.elastic.co/blog/security-for-elasticsearch-is-now-free)
