Review visibility

Hello. I recently created IMDb account with the prupose of reviewing movies, getting soem movie recommendations etc.

Those reviews are for my personal interest and I would prefer if no one saw them. 

Will people see the reviews I post or not? Also will the reviews stay there? I spend quite a lot of time reviewing movies and I wouldn´t want to some day find out they´re gone. Or that my accout is gone.

Thank you in advance

To my understanding, IMDb's movie review objects are all strictly publicly visible and have unique URLs. The usual strategy for storing movie reviews privately is to create an IMDb title list marked as private and integrate the particular content of a review into the description field of a list item corresponding to the title to which the review pertains. While list item description like anything are not to violate the IMDb Conditions of Use, the IMDb submission guidelines for movie reviews (GABTWSNLDNFLPRRH) do not and would not apply to these descriptions, since they are not actually submitted for approval.
