Extreme Clean provides a suite of extreme cleanups to remove obsolete data.

Cleanup your site

To assist with GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) compliance.
Before taking a site from development to production. When you are intensively editing and developing a site, the history of Lorum-Ipsum and test data remains in old page versions and test users.
Improve speed. On a busy or old site accumulated edits, history and abandoned user accounts combine to slow it down.
Decrease the size of backups . As a site is used, the database grows and slows. Backups take longer because they are saving old data you no longer care about. (but backup before you first run Extreme Clean, you don't want to clean too much!)
