10 Data Retention
We retain account information for as long as your account is active. Message content and delivery metadata are retained as part of your account's communication history and remain available to you until your account is closed. Diagnostic and application logs expire automatically on a rolling basis. When an account is closed, we delete or anonymize associated personal information within a reasonable period.
11 Data Deletion Requests
AltoSignal accounts are provisioned and administered by the organization that subscribes to the service, typically your employer. Individual users cannot delete an organization's account or its message history.
To request deletion of your personal information, or for an administrator to request deletion of an organization's account and associated data, email support@altosignal.com from the address associated with the account. We respond to deletion requests within 30 days.
What we delete. When an account is closed, we delete the account record and the personal information associated with it, including the email address and any user profile details. When an organization's account is closed, the signals, messages, and delivery history associated with that organization are deleted with it.
What we keep. Diagnostic and application logs contain device and platform information such as operating system version, app version, and device model. These expire automatically on a rolling basis and are not retained after expiry. We may also retain records required for legal, tax, or accounting purposes for as long as applicable law requires, and we retain aggregated information that does not identify any individual.
