BBSviz is a historical preservation and analysis project. We recognize that archived material may contain personal information or content that individuals wish to have removed or limited in visibility.
If you are:
- The original author of a message, or
- A person directly referenced in a message, and you have concerns about privacy or personal safety, you may request review for removal or redaction.
To request review, contact:
Please include:
- A link to the message or thread, or sufficient information to locate it.
- A description of your concern.
- If you are the original author, enough detail to help verify authorship, such as the handle used or approximate date.
Depending on the circumstances, we may:
- Redact personal data such as email domains or phone numbers.
- Remove specific messages from public view.
- Limit indexing visibility.
- Decline removal if the material is clearly historical, non-sensitive, and already broadly archived.
Requests are reviewed in good faith and handled as promptly as possible.
