This may not be something we can/should document (security/privacy) or what not...
But what actually happens to my password, email, and beer data when I fully delete an "account"?

If the beer data is in browser's local store, does that information get wiped?
What happens to the cookie data?

If the passwords, emails are stored on the server side - does the associated DB content get destroyed?
Or is it still there just not accessible with this "account"?

What happens if I re-create the same "account" using the same password and list of emails?

If the previous info is truely gone, then I assume this new set (of the same info) would appear as unique and new to Diresworb.org.
