Additional data destruction measures may be pre-agreed with the client in advance and may incur additional costs.
End-of-contract process
Clients can choose to ‘off-board’ services from Wavenet as follows:
• Provide notice in writing to their account manager within the contract terms & conditions, who will assist in arranging any required off-boarding services and the deletion of client data.
• Once the required works are agreed and the client has exported their data, Wavenet will shut down and destroy any remaining services.
• Fees may apply for off-boarding technical work and process management.
