If you are doing an over the air update then no. if you are flashing via the flasher command line then there are two parts to flash and one will do firmware the other all data. NSU im not too sure about.
Also when PR1.2 comes out im not too sure if that update will delete all user data because it aint out yet

Firstly, please don't type everything in capitals - it makes it very hard to read.
Anyway, updating via WiFi/3G will retain all your data, installed applications, etc. Flashing the main firmware using NSU (or flasher) will lose any installed applications but will keep any data, configuration settings, etc.
I'd recommend updating via WiFi if you can - it's a lot quicker.

Do OTA, make sure you have full battery and leave it for 40mins as it does take a lot of time.
If ya dont want to do OTA then id go for the flasing software (not NSU) search the forums for it cos im a bit too busy, will try and link it later if noone else can help.
Ive seen a lot of guys have issues with the NSU software but that was a good few months ago and there is a new version out now.

Dont worry about erased data with the update. There will be no update. PR1.2 is a hoax...

With OTA it downloads completely first and then installs the update.
But still make sure you do a backup using the inbuilt application, just to be on the safe side.
