• Legal compliance

• Security monitoring
• Abuse prevention
• Dispute resolution
• Contract enforcement

Where possible, we will delete, de-identify, aggregate, or restrict use of data that no longer needs to remain identifiable.

9. Backup Copies

Deleted data may remain in encrypted backups, logs, or disaster recovery systems for a limited period before being overwritten or deleted through normal retention cycles.

We do not use backup copies for active business purposes unless needed for recovery, security, compliance, or legal obligations.

10. Response Timing

We will review deletion requests after receipt and verification.

We aim to respond within 30 days unless a shorter period is required by applicable law or a longer period is reasonably necessary due to request complexity, verification, legal obligations, or technical limitations.

11. Requests From End Customers

If you are a customer of a business that uses Trades Operator, please contact that business directly for requests related to your service history, appointments, invoices, payments, communications, or other records.

Trades Operator processes many records on behalf of its business customers. In those cases, the business using Trades Operator controls the records and is responsible for responding to end-customer requests.
