We keep information for as long as we need it to provide our products, comply with legal obligations or to protect our or other's interests. We decide how long we need information on a case-by-case basis. Here's what we consider when we decide:
- If we need it to operate or provide our products. For example, we need to keep some of your information to maintain your account.
- The feature that we use it for and how that feature works. For example, messages sent using Messenger's vanish mode are retained for less time than regular messages.
- How long we need to retain the information for to comply with certain legal obligations.
- If we need it for other legitimate purposes, such as to prevent harm; investigate possible violations of our terms or policies; promote safety, security and integrity; or protect ourselves, including our rights, property or products.
In some instances, and for specific reasons, we'll keep information for an extended period of time. Learn more about when we may preserve your information.
We may access, preserve, and share your information in response to legal requests, such as search warrants, subpoenas, or court orders, when we believe in good faith that the law requires us to do so. This can include responding to requests from jurisdictions outside of your country if we believe that the response is required by law in that jurisdiction, affects users in that jurisdiction, and is consistent with internationally recognized standards.

Information we preserve or share in these contexts may include account details, messages (where legally permissible), activity logs, and other related data relevant to the request or investigation. We evaluate each request carefully and work to balance the need for transparency with obligations to comply with law and protect our community.
We implement technical and organizational measures, including encryption, access controls, and regular security audits, to safeguard your data.
You have the right to:
- Access and update your information
- Delete your account
- Change privacy settings

You can exercise these rights through your account settings or by contacting us.
