Delete my data

If you sent a message to a food pantry on its Facebook Page or through its website, and that pantry uses Pantry Commons, you can have your conversation deleted from Pantry Commons.

How to ask

On Facebook: send the pantry's Facebook Page the words delete my data. Sending from the same account shows the request is yours.

On a website: reply to the pantry's email with the words delete my data. Replying from that email address shows the request is yours.

A person at the pantry will delete the conversation.

You can also write to us at hello@pantrycommons.com. Tell us the pantry's name, and the name on your Facebook account or the email address you gave.

What gets deleted

Your messages, the replies sent to you, any draft replies and your email address are removed from Pantry Commons. We keep a record that a reply was sent, without its words, and counts that do not identify you.

Facebook keeps its own copy of messages sent on Facebook. Deleting here does not remove that copy. Facebook's own settings control it.

Our email provider keeps emails from a website conversation for up to 30 days. Deleting here does not shorten that.
