The fastest way to delete your account and data is from inside MiDESQ. You do not need to contact us.
If you can no longer sign in, have uninstalled the app, or would prefer us to action it for you, email us and we will do it.
We acknowledge requests within 5 working days and complete them within 30 days, as required by the UK GDPR. We will not charge you, and we will confirm in writing when it is done.
When your account is deleted, the following are erased across every device signed in to that account:
Some records cannot be deleted on request because UK law requires us, or you, to keep them. These are retained for the periods below and then deleted.
| Data kept | Retention period | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Invoices and job records | 6 years from invoice date | HMRC and Companies Act obligations |
| Payment records | 6 years | HMRC / VAT records |
| Account and identity data linked to those records | 6 years | Contractual; Limitation Act 1980 |
| Support communications | 3 years from closure | Complaint handling |
| Record of the deletion itself | Indefinite | Evidence the erasure happened. An internal reference and date only — it contains no personal data. |
Encrypted backups are held on a rolling schedule and are overwritten in the ordinary course, so deleted data may persist in a backup until it rotates out.
If a tradesperson has used MiDESQ to quote or invoice you, that tradesperson — not MiDESQ — is the controller of your data. Please contact them directly to request deletion. They may contact us to assist, and we will help them action it.
