# Your data

> Requesting an export, deleting an account, and which audit records are retained.

**Settings → Data & privacy.**

## Export

**Request data export** queues an export of your content. It is processed in
the background, and you are notified when it is ready.

For documentation specifically, the
[CLI](/foliums/blueprintr-user-guide/foliums/docs-cli) pulls a folium to disk as ordinary
markdown. This route round-trips: edit the files and push them back.

A folium also has its own
[export](/foliums/blueprintr-user-guide/foliums/export-and-print): a static site or a
printable document, resolved for whichever audience you pick.

## Deleting your account

**Permanently delete my account** asks for your current password first, so a
session someone walked away from cannot delete an account.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> Content owned by an organisation or a team **stays with it**: deleting your
> account does not delete a team's documentation. Move anything you want to
> keep personally before you delete.

Deletion is not instant, and cannot be undone once it completes. Export first.

## What is kept

[Audit records](/foliums/blueprintr-user-guide/teams/audit-log) of consequential actions
are retained by the organisation they belong to. The table is append-only at
the database level, so there is no path to remove them.

Those entries record the action and the actor id, not your profile. The request
context they include is a **hash** of the IP address.
