The defaults are set by /etc/logrotate.conf

/etc/logrotate.d contains some files with the definitions of the logfiles and
the some special actions to be taken in the rotate process. If you take a
look at the existing files, you probably guess many things.

the basic format of the files in /etc/logrotate.conf is

/var/log/filename1 /var/log/filename2 /var/log/filenamen {
        options
}

The options between {} override the oprions set in /etc/logrotate.conf
