Delete your account & data
This page explains how to permanently delete your Tape2Type account and the data associated with it.
How to request deletion
Email hello@tape2type.com from the email address on your account, with the subject “Delete my account”. That's the only step — you don't need to be logged in. We verify the request against the account email and action it, then confirm by reply.
- Send an email to hello@tape2type.com from your account email address.
- Use the subject Delete my account (or mention it in the body).
- We confirm and complete the deletion, then email you to confirm.
Requests are actioned within 30 days, usually much sooner.
What gets deleted
- Your account and login (email address and hashed password).
- Your saved transcripts and any insights generated from them.
- Your remaining credit balance (unused credits are forfeited on deletion).
Uploaded audio and video files are already deleted on a short schedule after each transcript is produced, as described in our Privacy Policy — they are not stored long-term either way.
What we're required to keep, and for how long
We retain a minimal record of completed payments and invoices (for example, the amount, date and last four digits of the card — never full card numbers) where we're legally required to for tax and accounting. Under UK law this is typically 6 years. These records are kept only for that legal obligation and are not used for any other purpose. Everything else tied to your account is removed.
