The “manage your information” section doesn’t exist where I’m at.
(Yes, I did a text search)
Instead, we have “request your data” which likely would give you complete files of all data they have on you. I’m not going to crawl through that right now.

I selected the request to get advertisement related. Theb they sent a freaking email with a confirmation link. I decided to go through.
After selecting that, they say, “it should be completed in a month, but it can take more time because of high request volumes.”
Yeah a database query is going to take a month.

It took reddit a month (to the day IIRC) to send me my data as well (like everything I’d ever written on the site) when I requested all my info just before I left. Must be some law that says a month in it somewhere.
