using JIRA as a shared tool across companies. How to retain info if other party's instance is used?

[Francesco Micarelli]

Our client wants to use a shared instance of JIRA to track our common initiative. An initial setup of the project has been made on their instance of JIRA. How can we ensure that at the end of the initiative we'll be able to retain all the historical information about the project?
