Account Deletion Policy
Last updated: 16 June 2026
You have the right to permanently delete your MTNData account and all associated personal data at any time, free of charge. This page explains how deletion works and what data is affected.
How to Delete Your Account
Option 1 — In the App
- Open the MTNData app.
- Tap Profile in the bottom navigation.
- Tap Account Settings.
- Scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.
- Confirm deletion. Your account will be queued for permanent removal.
Option 2 — By Email
Send an email to privacy@mtndata.shop with:
- Subject line: Account Deletion Request
- Your registered email address
We will confirm deletion within 7 business days.
What Gets Deleted
The following personal data is permanently and irreversibly removed:
- Name, email address, and hashed password
- Phone number(s) linked to your account
- Saved recipient numbers
- XP points, badge records, and leaderboard entries
- Wallet balance (any remaining balance is forfeited — please spend it before requesting deletion)
- Push notification tokens
- Profile preferences and settings
What Is Retained
To comply with financial regulations, fraud prevention obligations, and potential dispute resolution, transaction records (order IDs, bundle type, amounts, and delivery status) are retained for up to 3 years in anonymised form. After deletion, these records are not linked to your identity.
Wallet Balance Before Deletion
Any wallet balance remaining at the time of account deletion is forfeited and cannot be refunded. We strongly recommend spending your full balance before submitting a deletion request.
Irreversibility
Account deletion is permanent and irreversible. Once your account is deleted, you will need to create a new account to use MTNData again. Previous order history will not be recoverable.
