 Tell them that according to Data Protection Regulations to which Wise is subject to (including the GDPR and UK DPA), data must not be deleted, unless there is another lawful or regulatory reason for doing so.
 Explain that deleting the information before the stipulated regulatory time period would mean Wise would be in breach of these regulations. Therefore, we cannot do so until the relevant retention period expires.
 Assure the customer that their Wise account can be deactivated, and their data will automatically be deleted when the retention period has passed. They won’t need to contact us again.
