Question
When should I delete candidate data?
Answer
This feature is designed in accordance with the CCPA and should be used only when a candidate requests their data to be deleted. This feature also provides candidates the option to reach out to Checkr to remove their personal information.
Checkr has made this feature available to maintain FCRA obligations and align with CCPA/CPRA. It provides transparency and gives candidates control over their data.

Important: Deleted reports cannot be reinstated. To obtain this information again, a new report will need to be ordered.
