What we delete or anonymise

Profile information, profile photographs and notification identifiers are deleted or anonymised within 30 days afteraccount closure, unless another retention category or legal obligation applies.Information retained after account deletion will not be used to continue providing an active account or for directmarketing.

Information we may retain

Account closure does not require the immediate deletion of KYC, transaction, accounting, fraud-prevention, disputeor regulatory records that Tipany or a financial-service provider must retain.

Tipany’s normal retention periods are:

  • KYC and identity-verification records: at least five years after the later of the relevant transaction or accountclosure, or longer where law, a regulator, an investigation or a legal claim requires.
  • Transaction, wallet and payment records: at least five years after the transaction or account closure, or longerwhere law, a regulator, an investigation or a legal claim requires.
  • Accounting and tax records: six years from creation, subject to any longer legal requirement.
  • Dispute and legal-claim records: normally six years, or until the matter and any relevant limitation period,investigation or enforcement process has ended.
  • Security and access logs: 12 months, unless required longer for an investigation, security incident, legal claim orregulatory requirement.
  • Backups: removed through the normal backup-rotation cycle and protected from routine use. Informationrestored from backup remains subject to the original deletion request.

When a retention period expires, Tipany deletes, anonymises or securely isolates the information unless it must bekept for a lawful reason.
For more information, read the Tipany Privacy Policy, particularly Sections 9 and 10.

Before submitting your request

If your account has an available balance, pending transaction, wallet restriction or unresolved dispute, contact support before submitting your request. Tipany or the relevant regulated financial-service provider may need toaddress that matter and retain related records even after account closure.

If available, download any account or transaction information you wish to keep before deletion is completed.
