Delete your account

Last updated 25 September 2026

You can have your Nirman Hisab account deleted at any time. It is free, and we will not ask why. This page says exactly what is removed, what stays and why, and how long it takes.

How to ask

For a request by email, we first call or message that number to check it really came from you, so nobody can delete somebody else's account, and reply when it is done.

If you are a site manager, or anyone added by a business

Removed — at once from the app, within 7 days by email:

Kept, and why: the entries you recorded for your employer — expenses, labour, cash, materials and the bill photos attached to them — are part of that business's accounts. The books belong to the business, not to us, so we do not remove entries from them on one person's request; a site book with holes in it is not a book. They stay, shown against "Removed user" instead of your name. If you want particular entries removed, ask your admin, or tell us and we will pass it on.

If you run the business

Deleting a business deletes everything in it: every site, every record, every photograph and every login your people use. It cannot be undone, so:

Backups

Deleted data also leaves our backups as they age out: the server's own copies within 14 days, the encrypted off-site copies within 90. Backups are only ever used to restore the service after a failure, never to bring back something that was deleted on request.

More about what we store and why is on the privacy page.
