How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata will be retained for the time being. This is done so that we can automatically recognize and approve the following comments instead of keeping them in the moderation queue.

We store user profile information for registered users (if any). All users can view, edit and delete their own personal information at any time. Only the username cannot be changed. Webmasters can view and edit user profile information.
