Re: Community account deletion - Mailing list pgsql-www

Greetings,

We will disable access to your community account and as a result in all services directly depending on it. We will
deleteany information that we are able to. Certain information that we retain cannot be deleted without seriously
impairingthe integrity of project archives, and as such will not be deleted. This data retention is provided for in
article17, paragraph 3d of the GDPR. 

We are not able to delete copies of information that are held by parties other than the PostgreSQL Global Development
Group.For example, emails posted to mailing lists may be archived by other organizations, and we are not able to delete
those,or request their deletion on your behalf.  Each organization will have its own policies around deletion. 

The PostgreSQL community is federated, and other organizations (such as PostgreSQL US and PostgreSQL Europe) have their
ownpolicies regarding information retention. You will need to contact those organizations directly if you wish them to
acton a data deletion request. 

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group administers some data on behalf of organizations, such as the PostgreSQL
CommunityAssociation of Canada, that are not covered by the GDPR. However, we act in the spirit of the GDPR to the best
ofour ability in handling deletion requests that affect that data. 

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.

Best,
-- Christophe Pettus
