Description
The Contact Form module in Jetpack saves entries to the database and are able to be viewed via the Feedback menu item. These entries contain personal identifiable information. In light of the [GDRP](https://www.eugdpr.org/) which takes affect in May 2018, and in general, I would like the ability to discard entries or not save them to the database.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by locating the Contact Form module's persistence path and the Feedback entry handling, then determine how entries can be discarded or prevented from being saved. Done means the requested behavior is available while the existing Feedback flow remains correct for entries that are saved.
