How can users retrieve or delete their data?
Within the Settings page of the Reftab platform, users may navigate to the section titled, “Delete Account”. From here, there is a button that when clicked, will permanently delete your account and all associated data. If a user would like to download their data we allow them to do so by using the export features on the reports page or the export feature on the settings page.
Does Reftab have a defined policy on data retention?
Reftab does not delete data without express written consent from a user. This is because Reftab offers free accounts with no time limit on usage. If a user would like to delete their account they may do so from within the settings page.
We currently have a retention period of backups on Dropbox of three weeks. So if a user deletes their account, their information will be retained within backups until the backup retention period has ended.
Does Reftab offer a Data Processing Agreement (DPA)?
Yes - Email: help@Reftab.com and we will send you our DPA for review and sign.
