  2. Open Settings.
  3. Choose Delete account.
  4. Read the warning and confirm permanent deletion.

An administrator account, or an account participating in active or disputed work, cannot be deleted until those responsibilities have been resolved.

Request deletion when you cannot sign in

Email contact@8job.co.uk from the email address registered to your 8Job account. Use the subject 8Job account deletion request and include the name shown on the account. We may ask for limited additional information to verify that the request is genuine before deleting the account.

We will respond within the period required by UK data protection law. If active or disputed work blocks immediate deletion, we will explain what must be resolved and will not require you to reinstall the app.

What deletion does

Eligible account deletion removes the sign-in account, anonymises the public profile, cancels open listings and removes current availability, precise listing locations, profile and listing media, calendar items, notifications and verification records.

Completed-order records, messages, reviews, reports, disputes and payment or accounting records may be retained where reasonably needed for safety, fraud prevention, tax, accounting, legal claims or another legal obligation. Retained records are restricted and are deleted or anonymised when no longer needed.
