Data Deletion (Right to Erasure) - Buzzr.

Last Updated: 12-12-2025

This page explains how individuals can request deletion of their personal data held by Buzzr (buzzr.media), what we delete, how we verify requests, timelines, and applicable limitations.


1. Summary

Buzzr respects user privacy and provides a clear process for requesting deletion ("right to erasure") of personal data that we control. Some data may need to be retained for legal, security, or operational reasons.


2. Who can request

  • The individual whose data is held (the data subject), or
  • A person authorised to act on their behalf (requires proof of authorisation)

Requests from third parties without valid authorisation will not be processed.


3. What we can delete

We can delete personal data such as:

  • Your name, email, and profile details associated with your Buzzr account
  • Data you submitted through forms, uploads, or content tied directly to your identity
  • Usage logs that can reasonably be linked to your account and are not required for operational integrity

Data we may not fully delete:

  • Aggregated or anonymised data not linkable to you
  • Backup copies retained temporarily for disaster recovery
  • Data required for legal compliance, fraud prevention, or dispute resolution

4. How to request deletion

Buzzr processes deletion requests only via email.

Send an email to [email protected] with the subject line:

Data Deletion Request — <Your Full Name>

Include the following information:

  • Full name
  • Email associated with your Buzzr account
  • Username (if applicable)
  • A clear statement requesting deletion of your personal data
  • Any additional information that may help locate your records (e.g., approximate usage dates)

If you submit on behalf of someone else, attach:

  • A signed authorisation document, and
  • A government-issued ID for verification

5. Verification

To protect our users, Buzzr verifies every deletion request. We may:

  • Send a verification link or code to the email on record
  • Request government-issued ID (only for verification purposes and securely deleted afterward)
  • Ask for additional non-sensitive information to confirm ownership of the account

We only request the minimum required for verification.


6. Timeline

  • Acknowledgement: Within 5 business days of receiving your request
  • Completion: Within 30 calendar days after successful verification

If additional time is needed due to complexity or legal constraints, we will notify you with the reason and expected timeline.


7. What deletion means

  • Your account and associated personal information will be removed
  • You will lose access to Buzzr services tied to your account
  • Some content you contributed (e.g., public posts or shared assets) may remain to avoid breaking shared experiences; where feasible, personal identifiers will be removed
  • Deletion is generally permanent

8. Exceptions

We may retain data when necessary for:

  • Legal compliance or regulatory requirements
  • Preventing fraud, abuse, or security incidents
  • Resolving ongoing disputes or fulfilling contractual obligations
  • Maintaining anonymised datasets for analytics or service optimisation

When retention is required, your data will be restricted from further processing.


9. Backups and system caches

Your deleted data may persist temporarily in system backups. These backups are retained only for disaster recovery and are purged on a scheduled cycle.


10. Audit log

Buzzr keeps a minimal internal record of deletion requests, including timestamps and outcomes, for compliance and security. Deleted personal data is not included in this audit trail.


11. Appeals

If your request is refused due to legal or technical reasons, we will explain the outcome. You may appeal the decision by replying to the same support channel.
