Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if the visitor has visited the other website directly.

How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata may be retained indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
