Manual Deletion Channel
For security reasons, accounts cannot be deleted directly within the app. Our support desk reviews and processes each erasure manually.
Account Deletion Overview
At Asha Old Clothes Buyer, we are committed to providing transparency and total control over your personal data. If you have registered an account with our doorstep pickup system, you can request the permanent removal of your registration records, mobile login keys, and saved preferences at any time.
Important Notice: Customers cannot delete their accounts directly from the mobile application. This architectural design is established to protect your booking vouchers, spot weights records, and pending digital payouts. Instead, all account deletion requests are coordinated and vetted manually by our support team to ensure there are no ongoing disputes, active shipments, or ledger discrepancies.
How to Request Account Deletion
We provide simple channels to register your manual deletion request. Please follow these structured steps precisely:
Step 1: Contact Support Channel
Initiate contact with our administrative support team through:
- WhatsApp Chat Support for quick real-time messaging.
- Official Email for formal compliance communications.
Step 2: Provide Registered Details
Provide our support agent with your registered mobile number and your registered email address. This allows us to locate your personal file correctly in our system.
Step 3: Identity Verification Vetting
Our support team will verify your ownership of the account. This usually involves an OTP dispatch to your registered mobile number or confirming your previous doorstep pickup reference numbers to prevent unauthorized deletions.
Step 4: final Deletion Processing
After successful verification and confirmative consent, your active account files and logs will be permanently scrubbed from our active servers.

Data That May Be Retained
Under regulatory compliance laws of India and bookkeeping audit requirements, we are legally mandated or operationally required to retain certain records for a limited duration. These exceptions are strictly isolated from standard marketing platforms:
- Completed Booking history: Logs of completed clothing weight pickups, evaluated valuations, and payout audit vouchers are stored in encrypted cold files to protect legal transaction histories.
- Financial or Accounting Records: Invoices or UPI cash voucher distributions (if applicable) are retained for 8 financial years for corporate taxation audits.
- Fraud Prevention Logs: Security metadata, blocked IP signatures, and device records associated with flagged accounts or dummy requests are maintained to protect our fleets and services.
- Legal Compliance Records: System logs required to satisfy regulatory investigations or court warrants are stored in locked server storage.
- Customer Support Communications: History of WhatsApp chats, emails, and support complaints registered with our staff is retained to track resolution quality and record direct agreements.
Google Play Store Compliance
This page is carefully configured to comply with the official Google Play Account Deletion Policy. Under Play Store developer requirements, applications that permit account creation must also provide users with a clean, web-accessible dashboard to request deletion of both their account and all associated personal credentials, without forcing them to rely strictly on an in-app trigger.
If you have uninstalled the Asha Old Clothes Buyer app or are unable to open it, you may use this public web form and our official support channels to fully process your account and data deletion request securely.

Account Deletion FAQs
Q1: Why can't I delete my account directly from the app?
Direct in-app deletion is disabled to prevent the accidental loss of pending payouts, weight assessments, or booking histories. Because we exchange physical materials for spot valuation payments, our support desk manually reviews accounts to confirm there are no active pickup runs or financial balance disputes prior to clearing database logs.
Q2: What information is permanently deleted when my deletion request is approved?
Your entire active personal profile, login phone keys, email address, saved delivery/pickup address lists, device notification tokens, push configurations, and referral log histories will be completely and permanently removed from our active servers.
Q3: How long does the manual account deletion process take from start to finish?
Our support coordinator will review your submitted profile details and verify account ownership within 1–3 business days. Once approved, the permanent database scrubbing operation is processed and finalized within 7 business days. You will receive direct confirmation via email or WhatsApp once the deletion is complete.
Q4: Will my old clothes doorstep pickup history be deleted?
Completed transactional records, spot evaluation summaries, and UPI payment voucher confirmations must be retained in encrypted, offline audit vaults for legally required corporate tax compliance and financial auditing. They are isolated from active databases and are never used for marketing.
Q5: If I delete my account, can I restore it later if I change my mind?
No. Account deletion is final and permanent. Once processed, our servers completely scrub your login files and registered details, making them unrecoverable. If you wish to use our digital doorstep pickup service again in the future, you will need to create a new user profile.
Q6: Do I need to pay any fee to request account deletion?
Absolutely not. Requesting the removal of your personal information and clearing your digital registry files is performed completely free of charge as part of our privacy assurance guidelines.
Q7: Can I delete my account if I have an active/scheduled doorstep pickup?
No. Any active or pending doorstep collection schedules must be completed or formally cancelled before your deletion request is processed. This protects logistical operations and ensures all weight balances and payouts are securely cleared first.
Q8: Is my personal data sold or transferred during the account deletion request?
Never. We are a dedicated circular textile initiative and adhere to strict local data protection rules. Your verification files are strictly confidential and are never shared or sold to third-party marketing companies under any circumstances.
Q9: What if my registered mobile number is no longer active to verify my account?
If you cannot receive an SMS OTP for identity vetting, please submit your request from your registered email address along with a copy of a past pickup bill or confirmation message. Our admin coordinator will run a manual review to securely verify your ownership before data scrubbing.
Q10: How does this page satisfy the Google Play Store's Account Deletion Policy?
Play Store guidelines state that if your app allows account creation, you must provide a web-accessible way to delete accounts without requiring users to reinstall or open the app. This public web portal fulfills that mandate by detailing verification steps and providing easily accessible web contact buttons to register manual deletion requests.
Legal Disclaimer & Consent
By sending an account deletion request through our WhatsApp or email channels, you acknowledge and agree that you have read this policy in its entirety and grant our compliance desk explicit consent to access and inspect your customer records for verification purposes. You understand that this data-scrubbing process is permanent, irreversible, and legally binding under Maharashtra judicial guidelines.
