Summary
Konfir keeps your verification data only for as long as necessary to deliver your verification result and meet legal and regulatory requirements. After that, your data is securely deleted.
ℹ️ Note: For full details on Konfir's retention practices, see the Privacy Notice.
Retention periods
Konfir retains your verification data for seven years from the date of your last verification submission. Where you have a Konfir account, the seven-year period runs from account closure.
This period exists to maintain audit and security records required by law, meet contractual and regulatory obligations, and allow Konfir to respond to any legal or regulatory claims that may arise.
What happens after the retention period
Once the required period ends, your verification data is removed from active systems and securely deleted. Copies held in backups are also deleted in line with Konfir's backup cycle.
Requesting early deletion
You can request deletion of your data before the retention period ends by making a data rights request.
Your verifier may hold a copy
Your verifier may retain a copy of your verification result in their own systems, under their own data retention policies. Konfir doesn't control how long your verifier keeps this. For questions about your verifier's retention, contact them directly.
