This page explains how to request deletion of your JobCostingApp account and the data associated with it, which data is deleted, and which data we may keep and for how long.
You can request that your account and its data be deleted in either of these ways:
We will verify the request comes from the account owner and complete the deletion within 30 days. We will email you when it is done.
You do not have to delete your whole account. While signed in, you can delete individual records yourself — for example projects, invoices, materials, labor entries, payments, subcontractors and uploaded photos. You can also email privacy@jobcostingapp.com to ask us to delete specific data on your behalf.

| Business data you entered (projects, estimates, invoices, materials, labor, subcontractors, payments) | Permanently deleted | Within 30 days of your request |
| Uploaded photos / attachments | Permanently deleted | Within 30 days of your request |
