Retention & Deletion · Company practice

If you or Etsy terminate your account, you may lose information, including Your Content

When an account is terminated, whether by you or by Etsy, you may lose any information associated with the account, including Your Content. This sits alongside the statement that terminating will not affect the availability of some of Your Content; the Terms do not reconcile the two or say what is kept.
