Data retention
We keep records only as long as they are useful to you or required of us, and we tell you exactly how long that is.
Last updated August 2026
Retention periods
- Anonymous audits (a website address and its findings, with no email): kept for 90 days, then deleted.
- Unlocked audits tied to an email: kept for 24 months so you can compare progress over time.
- Account data, workspace profile, tracked audits, scans, generated assets and checklist progress: kept for the life of the account.
- After account deletion: removed from live systems within 30 days and from backups within 90 days.
- Billing records: kept for 7 years where tax law requires it.
- Technical logs: kept for 30 days.
Where it is stored
Audit and account data is stored in a managed cloud database with access restricted to your own account through row-level security. Staff access is limited to support and incident response.
Deleting your data early
Email privacy@goaeo.ai from the address on the account and we will delete your records within 30 days. If you only want a single audit removed, include the website address and the date it was run.
