How to Request Deletion
You may request complete deletion of your MentionFox account and all associated data at any time by emailing support@mentionfox.com from the email address associated with your account.
Please use the subject line "Account Deletion Request" so we can process your request promptly.

What May Be Retained

Before You Delete
Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone. Before requesting deletion, you may want to:
- Export your data — download scan results, lead lists, and reports from your dashboard.
- Cancel your subscription — if you have an active paid plan, cancel it first to avoid additional charges.
- Download comparison reports — save any Fox Compare or dossier reports you need.
