Other Data Controllers may only require us to store the data for a number of months before deleting it.

Whilst we will always undertake our obligations to delete accounts, if asked to do so, it is our recommendation that you discuss this with the Data Controller before a formal request is made. You are under no obligations to do so, however there may be consequences that HCS are unaware of and cannot therefore advise you of.
