Your data, and what deletion actually deletes
MyKavo stores page measurements and screenshots for the retention window your plan allows. Screenshots live in object storage, never in the database. Deleting a website removes its scans, snapshots and change events immediately, and queues its screenshots and diff images for deletion from object storage.

What is stored
- Per-page measurements: status codes, timings, hashes, SEO metadata, headings, links, scripts and page weight.
- Full-page screenshots, stored in object storage and capped at 150KB each.
- Change events with previous and current values, plus diff images for visual changes.
- Account and workspace records, and notification history.
What deletion does
Deleting a website removes it and everything belonging to it from the database in one transaction: monitored pages, scans, snapshots, baselines and change events. Its screenshots and diff images are then queued for deletion from object storage and removed by a worker, usually within seconds.
Screenshots are stored content-addressed, meaning two pages that look identical share one stored image. Deletion is therefore reference-counted: an image is only removed once nothing else points at it, so deleting one website can never blank another one's history.
Retention
Scan history older than your plan's window is removed nightly, along with the associated artifacts. Snapshots referenced by an approved baseline are exempt - the baseline is your reference point and is not aged out.
