I assume that when a user deletes the app that all data stored locally by the app is deleted. But what if I wished to have data persist so that if they downloaded the app again, the app could reuse some of the old info such as preferences/login details etc

Can I do this?

Only if you constantly sync their data on your server and tie it to their UDID. Then on each launch send what's stored on your server to the device. Obviously not practical at all.
