Google is to cut the length of time it holds users' personal search data.

The search giant has said it will now keep personally identifiable search data for 18 months rather than the previous period of 18 to 24 months.

That's astonishing!  I had no idea they retained data for that long, or had that capacity for storage.
Many thanks to all our members, who have made PC Pals such an outstanding success!   :thumb:
