Data & Account Deletion

Information is retained for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including operation of the Platform, account management, security, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, backup integrity, and legal compliance.

Different categories of information may have different retention periods.

Deletion from active systems may not immediately remove information from encrypted backups, security logs, or records that must temporarily be retained for legitimate legal or technical purposes.

Such information should cease to be used for ordinary Platform purposes and be removed or overwritten according to applicable retention procedures.

Depending on applicable law and the user's location, users may have rights relating to their personal information, potentially including rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object, portability, withdraw consent, and lodge a complaint with an applicable data-protection authority.

Requests may be submitted through Contact Us. We may need to verify the identity of the requester before acting on a privacy request.

Users may request account deletion through available account controls or Contact Us.

Account deletion may result in deletion or anonymization of associated personal information, subject to applicable legal and operational retention requirements.

Deletion of one user's account does not necessarily require deletion of independently submitted QSO information belonging to another operator.

For example, if Operator A logs a contact with Operator B and Operator B later deletes their account, Operator A may still have an independent record of that radio contact.

We will consider privacy, data ownership, legitimate recordkeeping, and applicable legal requirements when processing deletion requests.
