What's the difference between a regular data deletion and a full data deletion?

At Shift, personal and anonymous data is collected from you, as outlined in our Privacy Policy (you must agree to our Privacy Policy when you create a Shift account during the onboarding process).

Regular data deletion:

• Some personal data and data used in third-party tools (e.g., Facebook, Google, Customer.io, Sendgrid, Happyfox, Mixpanel) will not be deleted.
• The remaining data is mostly used for internal purposes after your account is deleted from our servers.
• Most of the remaining data cannot be used to identify you personally.
• However, some data, particularly in Facebook and Google, may be used for targeted advertising, meaning you could still receive ads for Shift after your account is deleted.
• You will be fully unsubscribed from all mailing lists.

Full data deletion:

• All personal and anonymous data we collect and use in third-party tools will be completely deleted.
• All data from Shift's servers will be deleted.
• You will be fully unsubscribed from all mailing lists.

Residents under Applicable Data Law have the right to a full account deletion. If you're a resident in any of the following jurisdictions, you can request a full deletion:

• Brazil (LGPD)
• California, USA (CCPA)
