What the guard collects

For each request through the admin, DBS stores the IP address, the network prefix, a hash of the user agent, the numeric feature vector, and the resulting score.

Browser location

Off unless DBS_GEOLOCATION = True and the person opted in during setup. When on, the browser is asked for a fix and the coordinates are rounded to about a kilometre before being stored. Declining costs nothing: an absent location is neutral, never an anomaly.

A location can only raise a risk score and never lower one, because it comes from the client and can be forged. Its real value is impossible travel — two fixes that cannot both be genuine.

Retention

Telemetry older than DBS_SECURITY_RETENTION_DAYS (default 90) is removed by python manage.py dbs security purge.
