Data Retention
Your contributions matter indefinitely. When you leave a comment, both the comment itself and its associated metadata are retained for ongoing engagement. This enables automatic approval of follow-up comments instead of holding them for moderation.
For registered users, your profile information is securely stored. You retain the rights to view, edit, or delete your personal data (excluding your username). Administrators also have access to this information for maintaining the website.

Should you possess an account on our site or have left comments, you have the right to request an exported file of your personal data in our possession, including any information you’ve shared. You can also ask us to erase your personal data, except for data that’s necessary for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
