Or email us

Note: we may retain a minimal record of closed accounts (dealership name, closure date, last invoice) for 7 years to satisfy Canadian tax-record retention obligations. This minimal record is not used for any other purpose.

Most of your data lives at the dealership, not at DealerMatrix
DealerMatrix is the platform a dealership uses to run its business. When you submit a form on a dealer's website (a lead, a credit application, a trade-in valuation), the dealership is the data controller, and DealerMatrix is the data processor. So:
- First, contact the dealership whose website you used. They can delete your record on the spot from their CRM. Their privacy contact is on their dealer site's privacy page.
- If the dealership doesn't respond inside 30 days, write to us at support@dealermatrix.ca. Include the dealer's name and the email/phone you submitted. We will delete your platform-level record and confirm in writing.

Direct deletion request
- Email support@dealermatrix.ca from the email tied to your Meta account, subject "Meta data deletion".
- Tell us which dealership you connected (or your Meta business ID), and we'll find and delete every reference.
- You will receive a confirmation email within 30 days, including the deletion confirmation code Meta requires.
Confirmation code format: we issue a code in the form DM-DEL-YYYYMMDD-XXXXXXXX. You can quote this back to Meta if needed.
What happens after deletion
- Personal information is hard-deleted from the primary database within 30 days.
- Backups are encrypted; the corresponding records are pruned at the next 90-day backup-rotation cycle.
- Audit-log entries are anonymized rather than deleted, where required by law.
- You will not be subject to any service or marketing communication after deletion is confirmed.
