Last updated

You can delete your PartTime UK account and its data at any time, in the app or on the website. This page explains how, and what is deleted or kept.

On this page

1. In the app (Android and iPhone)

  1. Open the PartTime UK app and sign in.
  2. Go to Account, then Settings.
  3. Tap Delete account.
  4. Enter your password, or type your email address if you sign in with Google or Apple, then confirm.

2. On the website

  1. Sign in at parttimeuk.co.uk.
  2. Open My account, then Settings.
  3. Select Delete account.
  4. Type your email address and, if you have one, your password, then select Delete my account.

3. If you cannot sign in

Email privacy@parttimeuk.co.uk or support@parttimeuk.co.uk from the email address on your account and ask us to delete it. We will reply within one month.

4. What happens next

  • Your account is closed straight away and permanently deleted after 30 days.
  • During that time your profile is hidden from employers and any jobs you posted are hidden from job seekers.
  • Changed your mind? Email support@parttimeuk.co.uk before then and we can cancel the deletion.

5. What is deleted

  • Your profile and account details, CV and profile photo.
  • Your job applications, with the CV and message sent with them, and their notes and interview records.
  • Your messages, notifications, job alerts, saved jobs, availability, hours and pay entries and saved quick replies.
  • Your Open to work details and your CV AI data (uploaded CVs, text taken from them and AI versions).
  • Your company page, if you are an employer.
  • Search records and job source click records are anonymised.

6. What we keep, and for how long

  • Payment and transaction records, for tax and accounting: 7 years after the payment.
  • A short record of the deleted account (name, email address, account type and dates) for 12 months, to deal with later questions, disputes or misuse. After that only a scrambled form of the email address, the account type and the dates, deleted 6 years after the account was deleted.
  • Records of your data protection requests, including this deletion: 7 years. They show what happened and when, not your data.
  • Age band change records for job seekers: 7 years, for safety. They hold the account number, not your name or contact details.
  • Right to work and written statement records that an employer keeps for someone they hired stay with that employer, as the law requires, for 2 years after the employment ends.
  • Jobs you posted as an employer are taken down and your name and contact details are removed from them, so students who applied keep their application history.
  • Anything else only where the law requires it or it is needed for a legal claim.

7. Delete some data without closing your account

  • Remove or replace your CV and profile photo in your profile.
  • Remove notifications from the bell, and delete job alerts and saved jobs.
  • Delete your Open to work details, your availability and your hours and pay entries.
  • Delete your CV AI data by withdrawing consent on the CV rewrite page.
  • Download a copy of your data from Settings at any time.

For anything else, email privacy@parttimeuk.co.uk. See our Privacy Policy for the full details.
