Every kind of data we keep has a fixed lifetime. When it runs out, the data is deleted automatically.

What this means for you

  • Cached answers. A scrape can be answered from a recent copy of a page for up to 7 days, if you allow it with maxAge. See Caching.
  • Old calls in the dashboard. After 30 days, a call still shows in your request history with the response we sent, but the page content as fetched is no longer available.
  • Polling old jobs. After 90 days, polling a crawl or batch answers 404.

Deleting your account

When you delete your account, we delete or de-identify the data tied to it, except records we are legally required to keep. See Your account.
