Data Deletion Terms and Conditions

These terms govern the process of requesting data deletion from Google Support systems. By submitting a deletion request, you agree to abide by these conditions.

Key Deletion Policies

Verification Required

Users must verify their identity via email or phone before any deletion proceeds.

Final Deletion

Once data is deleted, it cannot be recovered unless explicitly requested within 72 hours before final removal.

Legal Compliance

Deletion adheres to data protection laws including GDPR and CCPA. Users retain the right to reverse requests during legal review periods.

Reversal Option

You may cancel a deletion process within 3 business days of initiation by contacting support via verification methods.

1. Scope of Deletion

This applies to data stored within support systems (requests, diagnostic history, communications). It does not include primary Google services like Gmail or Photos.

2. Verification Process

All deletions require two-factor authentication via email or phone to prevent accidental removal. Verification must occur within 72 hours for completion.

3. Legal Protection

Users must represent accurately during verification. False claims to remove data may result in account restrictions.

4. Timeframe

Deletion processing takes 5-10 business days after successful verification. A confirmation email with details will be sent when complete.

By continuing, you confirm understanding of these deletion terms and agree to the outlined conditions.
