14-day deletion grace period

You have 14 days to change your mind.

When you submit a deletion request, we don't delete your account straight away. Nothing is removed during the grace period, so signing back in restores everything.

  1. Day 0

    You're signed out on every device right away, and we email you a confirmation with the date your account will be permanently deleted.

  2. Days 1–14

    Grace period

    Changed your mind? Sign back in to your account at any time during these 14 days. Your deletion request is cancelled and your account is restored as it was.

  3. After 14 days

    Permanent deletion

    If you haven't signed in, your account enters the permanent deletion process. After this starts, it can't be cancelled and your account can't be restored.

Data that is deleted

What we delete.

When permanent deletion runs, we delete or anonymize the personal data linked to your account in our active systems. Some information may still be kept where the law requires or allows it, as explained below.

  • Profile information

    Your name, email address, phone number, bio, address, qualification and onboarding answers are removed from your account, and your profile photo is unlinked from it.

  • Sign-in and connections

    Your password, Google sign-in link, active sessions and password reset codes, plus any connected Google Calendar access.

  • AI Workspace

    Your AI Workspace conversations are deleted.

  • Interview and Interview Coach

    Interview transcripts, notes and questions asked, your answers to interview discovery questions, and the records of résumés you submitted. Your name is removed from your interview sessions.

  • Notifications and devices

    Your notification preferences, in-app notifications, push notification device registrations and any pending WhatsApp messages.

  • Credits and entitlements

    Your credits, interview and consultation grants, AI Workspace access and referral code are cleared, and your subscriptions are marked as cancelled in AIshala.

  • Other activity

    Feedback you submitted and your learning game sessions.

Data that may be retained

What we may keep, and why.

We may keep some information after your account is deleted when it's required or permitted for legal compliance, security, fraud prevention, accounting, tax, payment processing, dispute resolution or other legitimate operational needs.

  • Payment and transaction records

    Records of purchases and payments, including the name and email address used at the time, as well as credit and reward point transactions, refund records and coupon redemptions.

    Why: Accounting, tax, payment processing, fraud prevention and dispute resolution.

  • Learning and usage records

    Course, challenge and project progress (including what you submitted for projects, such as text, links, files and notes), interview scores and evaluation reports (which may summarize your answers), and usage and activity statistics. These are linked to an internal account identifier rather than to your profile details.

    Why: Service integrity, security and reporting.

  • Certificates

    Certificates issued to you, including the name printed on them and their certificate number, may remain on record and verifiable.

    Why: So certificates you've already shared stay verifiable.

  • Uploaded files

    Files you uploaded, such as your profile photo and résumés, are unlinked from your account, but stored copies may not be erased automatically. You can ask us to erase them.

    Why: Stored files are removed separately from your account records.

  • Bookings and support requests

    Bookings with instructors are kept, including the name and email address used for the booking. Support requests are kept with your name and email address removed.

    Why: Keeping instructors' records accurate and resolving disputes.

  • Community content

    Messages you posted in live session chats and leaderboard entries may remain, with the display name and profile photo shown at the time.

    Why: Keeping shared sessions and rankings coherent for other learners.

  • Operational logs

    Limited delivery records of emails, WhatsApp messages and calls sent to you, which may include the phone number used.

    Why: Security, fraud prevention and legal compliance.

How long we keep it

We keep retained information only for as long as the purpose it's kept for requires. When it's no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it. For more details, see our Privacy Policy.
