Anchal retains user information only for as long as it is necessary to provide and administer the services, maintain security, comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements, and fulfil legitimate programme and public health record-keeping requirements.
When a user account is deactivated or a user requests deletion of their personal information, we will review the request and delete or anonymise personal information that is no longer required for the purposes described above, subject to applicable legal, regulatory, audit, security, or public health record-retention requirements.
Some information may therefore be retained for a limited period after account deactivation or deletion where retention is required for legal compliance, audit, security, reporting, or other legitimate programme requirements. Such retained information will continue to be protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy and will not be retained longer than necessary for the applicable purpose.
Users can request deactivation/deletion of their account and associated personal information through the Anchal Account Deactivation page.
To submit a request:
After a valid request is submitted, the account is deactivated and login access is disabled. Personal information eligible for deletion will be deleted or anonymised in accordance with our data-retention requirements described above.
If certain information cannot be immediately deleted because it is required to satisfy legal, regulatory, security, audit, or public health programme requirements, that information will be retained only for the required period and will then be deleted or anonymised.
If you are unable to access the Account Deactivation page or require assistance with a deletion request, please contact your programme administrator for support.
