Data Deletion Policy
Data Deletion Policy
Purpose This document sets out our policy for responding to requests for deletion of data under Indian data protection laws. This document explains the rights of the data subject in relation to data deletion and the responsibilities of MyLang Creators Pvt Ltd in responding to such a request.
Individual Rights An individual has the right to erasure, also known as ‘the right to be forgotten’. The principle underpinning this right is to enable an individual to request the deletion or removal of personal data where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing.
When does the right to erasure apply?
Individuals have a right to have personal data erased and to prevent processing in specific circumstances:
- Where the personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purpose for which it was originally collected/processed;
- When the individual withdraws consent;
- When the individual objects to the processing and there is no other legal ground for the relevant processing activity;
- When the personal data was unlawfully processed;
- Where the personal data has to be erased in order to comply with a legal obligation.
MyLang stores data about individuals in order to serve them personalised feed of content on their platform. We store the Full name, e-mail address, phone number, Language and Date of Birth information of the users and strictly use it for only authenticating the user and providing personalised feed of audio content. This data is stored and used in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which can be found at: https://mylang.in/policies/privacy-policy
How can data be deleted?
Whenever a user requests MyLang to delete their data (via an email to contact@mylang.in), MyLang will ascertain the request for its validity and then delete the data within 30 days of receiving the request. Once deleted, the data cannot be recovered by any users or MyLang employees. Data which has been deleted or otherwise destroyed can not be recovered at any time. Sufficient warning is given to the users before data are permanently deleted. Data may still remain in the systems back-up files, which will be deleted periodically. We undertake to perform the deletion within one month (30 calendar days) and will send you a confirmation once the information has been deleted. Wherever possible, we will aim to complete the request in advance of the deadline.
