Before you can delete​

To protect the people you're renting with, deletion is paused until:

  • No bookings are in progress. Any booking that has been accepted, paid, picked up or returned must be completed or canceled first, whether you're the renter or the host.
  • No payment disputes are open on your bookings.
  • All host earnings have been paid out to your bank account.

If something is blocking deletion, the delete screen tells you exactly what it is.

Inquiries that haven't been accepted yet don't block deletion. They are canceled automatically.

What is deleted​

  • Your sign-in account: name, email address and password
  • Your saved addresses
  • Your saved payment methods
  • Your host payout account
  • Your favourites
  • Your notifications and notification settings
  • Your registered devices, so you stop receiving push notifications
  • Your listings, which are unpublished and removed from Curba

What is kept, and why​

Some records involve other people or are required by law. We keep them, but remove your name from them:

DataWhat happensHow long
Booking, payment and payout recordsKept, shown as "Deleted user"At least 7 years (Canadian tax and accounting law)
Reviews you wroteStay on the listing, shown as "Deleted user"While the listing's reviews are shown
Messages you sentStay in the other person's conversationUp to 36 months after the rental ended
Identity verification documentsHeld by our payment provider Stripe, not by CurbaAs required by anti-money-laundering and identity rules (typically 7 years)

After these periods the records are deleted or fully anonymised. See the Privacy Policy for details.

Deletion is permanent​

A deleted account can't be restored. If you want to use Curba again later, you'll need to create a new account.
