Effective date: October 15, 2026
College Fraturday is owned and operated by BFT Digital LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company.
Principle:
- Collect only what a feature needs and keep identities out of the database.
- Delete on a schedule. Expired data is removed automatically.
1. Site data
| Data | Kept for |
|---|---|
| Hosting logs (request metadata, including the requested web address and any search text or ZIP in it) | About 3 days |
| Weather cache: ZIP → location | ≤30 days (unrecognized ZIP: 1 day) |
| Weather cache: location → forecast area | ≤30 days |
| Weather cache: forecasts | Refreshed hourly; kept ≤2 days |
| Weather cache: weather alerts | Refreshed every 5 minutes; kept ≤2 days |
| Print Shop drafts | Never leave your browser |
| Organizer verification contact (not yet available) | While the request is open; deleted when it's decided |
| Exact address in a decided submission that wasn't chosen for publication (not yet available) | 30 days after the decision (the appeal window), then removed; a published address is held only on the public listing |
| Keyed IP hash on requests, reports and comments (not yet available) | ≤30 days, or cleared earlier when a request is decided |
| Rate-limit counters (not yet available) | Expire with their window (minutes to 2 days) |
| Organizer sessions (not yet available) | 12 hours |
| Manage-code hash (not yet available) | Until rotated or revoked |
| Terms-acceptance record (policy version + time) (not yet available) | As long as the submission or moderation record it belongs to |
| Rejected or spam comments (not yet available) | 30 days |
| Props de-duplication hashes (not yet available) | 30 days |
| Event-interest de-duplication hashes (not yet available) | Until 30 days after the event |
| Published listings, events and comments (not yet available) | Public until removed by the organizer or by us |
| Removed listings and events (not yet available) | Removed from public view at once. A listing's address, if one was published, is deleted when the listing is removed. The rest of the record (with its interest, props and comments) is deleted 24 months after removal, unless a §3 exception applies |
| Completed moderation records (not yet available): decided requests and claims, resolved reports, decided listing and event changes | 24 months after the decision, then deleted |
| Removed comments (not yet available) | 24 months after removal, then deleted |
| Revoked organizer records (name, role, code hash) (not yet available) | 24 months after revocation, then deleted |
| Internal activity log for listings, events and moderation (contains no verification contacts or unpublished addresses) | 2 years |
| Device token for interest and props (not yet available) | In your browser until you clear it; the server sees only a keyed hash |
2. Email to hello@, support@ and legal@
- Routine correspondence: 12 months from the last message in the conversation, then deleted.
3. Exceptions (apply to email and to moderation records)
We keep information longer only when one of these applies, and only for as long as it applies.
| Exception | Kept until |
|---|---|
| Dispute: a complaint, appeal or claim that is open | The dispute is resolved, then 12 months |
| Abuse or safety investigation: harassment, doxxing, threats, fraud, spam campaigns | The investigation ends, then 12 months |
| Copyright or legal notice: DMCA notices, counter-notices, trademark complaints, legal demands, and our responses | 3 years (the copyright claim limitation period, 17 U.S.C. §507(b)) |
| Legal preservation: a litigation hold, subpoena, court order or law-enforcement preservation request | The hold is released |
| Privacy or data request (access, correction, deletion) and our response | 24 months after the request is completed (record of handling) |
| Statutory obligation: any law requiring retention | As that law requires |
4. What we don't collect
- shopper accounts or passwords;
- marketing email lists;
- payment data;
- photos or videos;
- precise location (only a ZIP you type for the forecast);
- real names of commenters (display names are optional).
5. Requests
- Access, correction or deletion: support@collegefraturday.com.
- We respond within 30 days, or sooner where the law requires.
- We may keep a minimal record that a request was handled, and we keep information covered by a §3 exception.
