PunchDesk

Delete your account & data

PunchDesk is a multi-tenant HR, attendance & payroll app — each company runs its own private workspace.

Your PunchDesk account belongs to a workspace created by your employer (the Company). You can delete your own account and personal data at any time, directly in the app — no email or request ticket required.

How to delete your account (self-serve, immediate)

• In the app — open Settings → Account → Delete account, confirm with your password, and your account and personal data are deleted immediately.
• If you are the last administrator of your Company’s workspace, deleting your account deletes the entire workspace — every employee login and all of that company’s records. You’ll be warned before this happens.
• Withdraw face data only — to delete just your enrolled face data without deleting your account, use Settings → Privacy → Withdraw next to “Face verification”; it is erased immediately.

If you are an employee and would prefer your employer to remove your record for you, you can also ask your organisation’s HR/administrator, who manages your workspace.

What gets deleted

Deleting your account removes your personal data, including:

• Your face-verification data (biometric template) and attendance selfies
• Your GPS / field-duty location trails and visit photos
• Your login and profile contact details

Deleting a whole workspace (last-admin deletion) removes all of that company’s employees, attendance, payroll and related records from the live system.

What is kept, and for how long

Where your employer must retain certain records to meet Indian labour, tax and social-security law (for example payroll registers, salary-slip and statutory-deduction records under the Income Tax Act, EPF and ESI rules), those are kept for the periods those laws require — generally up to 8 years — after which they are deleted. Everything not required by law is deleted, or irreversibly anonymised, at the time of your deletion request (self-serve deletion is immediate) or within 30 days at the latest.
