There is certainly no such legal requirement.  With respect to best practice, I think it fair to say that good practice has coalesced around the concept that backup tapes are short-term disaster recovery/biz continuity tools, and are unsuitable for long-term archiving.  Long-term archival storage is a different process involving segregation and separate management of the archived data, as compared with the co-mingled state of most-backup data sets.

Best regards,

John
