## Location
The ContentDB production server is currently located in Canada.
Backups are stored in the UK.
Encrypted backups may be stored in other countries, such as the US or EU.
By using this service, you give permission for the data to be moved as needed.
## Period of Retention
The server uses log rotation, meaning that any logged HTTP requests will be
forgotten within a few weeks.
Users may remove their packages, which makes them invisible to all users, but
they will remain in the database until deleted by the admin.
Usernames may be kept indefinitely, but other user information will be deleted if
requested. See below.
