Data Retention Policy
1. Purpose
This policy explains how long Lueurly keeps different categories of Lueurly data. It reflects the verified retention schedule in effect on 2026-06-16.
2. Retention Schedule
| Data | Retention |
|---|---|
| Burn-after-read content, including `content_text`, E2EE payload, photos, and voice files | Cleared from the server no later than 1 hour after read and expiry |
| Contact hashes | Deleted after 90 days without update |
| GPS check-in coordinates, participant coordinates, and Sync Open anchor coordinates | Cleared after 90 days |
| Login attempts | 30 days |
| Audit logs, including IP, user agent, and device fingerprint | 180 days |
| Web access logs, including IP | 14 days |
| Application logs | 30 days |
| Database backups | 30-day rolling backups |
| Account data and remaining content | Kept while the account exists; erased when the account is deleted |
3. Burn-After-Read
Burn-after-read content is cleared from the server no later than 1 hour after the recipient reads it and the configured countdown expires. The clearing process removes stored content and media files from active server storage.
Burn-after-read is best-effort. It cannot prevent screenshots, screen recordings, photos of the screen, external recording, copying before deletion, or recipient misconduct. Cleared content is not retained long-term and backups roll over within 30 days. Lueurly does not promise immediate irreversible deletion.
4. Backups and Logs
Database backups are retained on a 30-day rolling basis. Application logs are retained for 30 days. Web access logs are retained for 14 days.
Logs may include IP addresses, user agents, device identifiers, timestamps, and operational events needed for security, abuse prevention, debugging, and legal compliance.
5. Account Deletion
When you delete your account, Lueurly erases account data and remaining content associated with the account, subject to the short retention periods above and any legal, subscription, safety, or audit obligations that require limited retention.
