Can you be a bit more precise about that?
There are the WAL log files; I expect you're not talking about that.
I expect you're talking about the log files containing error messages,
warnings, and such.
PostgreSQL will not, itself, purge out such files; consider that you
can configure it to distribute log information via syslog, which would
push the logs into a mostly OS-managed area.
You'll presumably want to figure out what YOU want your policy to be,
and find suitable tools (lots available) to implement that policy...
