Hopefully someone from the office will be along tomorrow to confirm our current practice

However you should look at our recent announcement on GDPR policy, which clarifies we will not delete all posts but will anonimise them under a GDPR request. You would need to contact the office directly if you believe there are specific posts that contain personal information

Hi there,

As Beasty says, we do not delete posts, but can do anonymisation when an erasure request is received. If posts contain personal data such as your name, phone number, address, etc. please send us the URL of the post in question so that we can redact it. If you would like to proceed with an erasure request for an old account, please e-mail datarequests@boards.ie including your username and the e-mail address associated with the account.
