Data Deletion Instructions

Version 1.0 · Effective 26 October 2026 · Draft for legal review

In short. You can disconnect Instagram or Facebook at any time, in Signal Crew or in Instagram/Facebook settings. To delete everything, use Profile → Delete my account, or email crew@signalhouse.co.in with the subject "Delete my data". We delete your data within 30 days and email you a confirmation with a reference code. We keep only payout and tax records that the law requires.

1. Disconnect Instagram or Facebook in Signal Crew

  1. Sign in at https://crew.signalhouse.co.in.
  2. Go to Profile → Connected accounts.
  3. Select Disconnect next to the Instagram or Facebook account.

1.1 When you disconnect, we delete the access token at once, so we can no longer read data from that account. Data already fetched is handled as in section 4.

2. Remove Signal Crew from Instagram or Facebook settings

2.1 Instagram app: Profile → menu (☰) → Settings and activity → Website permissions → Apps and websites → Active → select Signal Crew → Remove.

2.2 Facebook: Menu → Settings & privacy → Settings → Apps and websites (in some versions under Your activity, or Business integrations) → find Signal Crew → Remove.

2.3 Menu names can change when Meta updates its apps. If you cannot find the option, search "Apps and websites" in settings, or disconnect from within Signal Crew as in section 1.

2.4 Removing Signal Crew in Meta's settings stops our access. It does not delete data we already hold. To delete that, follow section 3.

3. Request full deletion

3.1 Choose one:

3.2 If you email from a different address, we will need to verify that the Account is yours before deleting it.

3.3 If you have unpaid available earnings, request a final payout first (the minimum payout is waived for a final payout). Pending earnings still in their hold period will be paid after the hold if approved, unless you tell us you do not want them.

4. What is deleted and what is kept

DeletedKept because the law requires it
  • Sign-in account and profile
  • Date of birth, phone number, preferences and optional answers
  • Social handles, connected-account tokens and data fetched from your accounts
  • Drafts, screenshots and uploaded files
  • UPI ID and bank details (once no payout is pending)
  • Communications not needed as payout records
  • Payout and TDS records: name as on PAN, PAN, amounts, dates, payout references and campaign earnings behind them
  • Records needed to deal with an open dispute, fraud case or legal claim
  • Processing logs kept for the minimum period the law requires

4.1 Retained records are kept only for as long as the law requires (see the Privacy Policy), are not used for any other purpose, and are then deleted.

4.2 We will also tell our service providers to delete your data. Campaign posts you published stay on your own social accounts; delete them there if you wish, unless a campaign brief you accepted requires them to stay live for a set period.

5. Timeline and confirmation

5.1 We acknowledge your request within 24 hours where possible and complete deletion within 30 days.

5.2 When done, we email you a confirmation with a reference code. Quote that code if you contact us about the request.

5.3 Once deleted, your Account cannot be restored. You may apply again later as a new applicant.
