What this site keeps, and why.

Only what a feature needs to work, for as long as it needs it, with a way to delete it. Updated 20 October 2026.

An enquiry

What
Your name, email address and organisation if you give them, where it would run, what you wrote, a drawing if you attached one, and when each step happened.
Why
To answer you, and to show you on your enquiry page what has happened since.
How long
Until you delete it from your enquiry page, or two years after it is closed, whichever comes first.

A call you book

What
The time you picked, attached to your enquiry.
Why
To hold the time for you and send the reminder the day before.
How long
As long as the enquiry it belongs to.

A saved drawing

What
Your five answers. Your email address only if you asked for the link to be emailed, and then only to say where it went.
Why
So the link we give you opens your drawing again.
How long
Until you delete it from its page, or 365 days.

A question to the assistant

What
The question and whether the site could answer it. Nothing that says who asked.
Why
To see what the site does not answer yet, and write that next.
How long
180 days.

The field-notes email

What
Your email address, whether you confirmed it, and which notes were sent to it.
Why
To send the notes you asked for, and only those.
How long
Until you stop them or delete the address with the link in every note. An address never confirmed is deleted after 30 days.

Counting requests

What
A one-way code of your connection's address, made with a key that changes every day, and how many requests it made that day.
Why
So the forms and the assistant cannot be used in bulk.
How long
Until the next day.
