Data retention
We reserve the right to retain some of the data for a period of time. This is done to prevent abuse of our system and to comply with legal requirements. In addition we have some monitoring systems in place that will detect unused accounts and sites and mark them for deletion. If you want to keep your data, please make sure you use it regularly. When you decide to delete some of the data, it might not be removed from your account immediately. Here's a list of approximate timing for each type of data:
- Images and static resources: image source is removed immediately, however the cache on CDN will be removed from couple hours to couple days (note that reindex might speed this up; additionally, you will need to request deletion of data in search engines separately)
- Posts: if you removed post directly, it will be removed from your account immediately, however it might still be cached on CDN and search engines. If you deleted site or account, it will be removed within 7 days.
- Site: a site will be marked for deletion as soon as you submit request, but we will only process it within next 7 days. All posts, images and configuration related to the site will be removed from our system without a way to restore it.
- Account: your account data will be marked for deletion as soon as you submit request. We will retain your email address for records, however everything else will be purged from system within the next 7 days. Sites will be marked for deletion if they don't have at least one user left.
