Hi – I have a quick question about deleting users in vBulletin.
After a user is deleted does the user’s info like full name, password, email address, profile info, and ip address stay in the database or is that info removed permanently? I know that any posts they posted will remain under “Guest” or under their original username that isn’t linkable to their profile. But for privacy policy concerns and database space I’d like to know what happens to users’ data after their accounts are deleted. Now what about when you ban a user, what info is stored / not stored?
