Deleting Your Account
You can permanently delete your QLINQ Health patient account at any time from the mobile app: open the Profile tab, chooseDelete Account, and confirm with your password. Deletion removes your name, email address, phone number, date of birth and the profiles of any dependents you manage, cancels your upcoming appointments, and signs you out of all devices. It cannot be undone.
Records of past visits are retained by the clinics involved in de-identified form, as clinics are required to keep health records under applicable law. If you cannot access the app, you can request deletion by emailing privacy@qlinqhealth.cafrom the email address on your account, and we will complete it within 30 days.
