What if we decide to cancel – what happens to our data?

Cancelling a service is a normal part of running any behavioral health organization. Teams change tools when they grow, adjust workflows, or refine how they manage hiring and clinical performance. It is not unusual, and it is not disruptive to how your information is handled.
With Care Predictor, cancellation does not mean your data suddenly disappears or gets used in a new way. Our platform continues to treat your data as part of a secure, controlled system that powers behavioral health workforce insights, even after a contract ends.
To understand this simply, think of it like a locked filing cabinet in a clinic office. When you stop using a tool, the files are not thrown into circulation or left open. They remain stored securely, and access stays limited to authorized use only.
Care Predictor is designed to help behavioral health organizations improve hiring decisions, reduce turnover, and strengthen care teams through data-driven insights. That means the information collected is tied to system functionality, reporting, and historical analysis, not casual or unrestricted use.
The key takeaway is simple. Even if you decide to cancel, your information remains handled under the same structured, security-focused framework. It is protected, access is controlled, and it continues to be managed in line with the platform’s purpose of supporting better behavioral health outcomes.
What happens immediately after cancellation
When you cancel Care Predictor, it simply means your subscription or contract comes to an end. Think of it like turning off a monthly streaming plan. You are no longer actively using the service, but nothing “breaks” or disappears instantly.
In most cases, access to the platform will be disabled or limited once your billing or contract period officially ends. This means your team may not be able to log in or use features after that point, depending on the terms of your agreement.
Importantly, cancellation does not mean your data is deleted right away. It stays within the system under the same secure handling rules described by Care Predictor. This ensures nothing is lost suddenly and there is no disruption to records tied to your account.
If there is a transition period, your organization may still have limited continuity for administrative or support purposes, helping teams wrap things up smoothly without losing access to important information too quickly.
Data retention after cancellation
When you cancel Care Predictor, your data is not deleted instantly. Instead, it continues to be stored safely within the system for a period of time, following the platform’s standard handling and security practices.
Think of it like putting a patient file into a secure storage room after a clinic switches software. The file is not in daily use anymore, but it is not thrown away right away either. It is kept in case it is needed later.
This is known as a secure retention period. During this time, data stays protected, and access remains restricted. It is not actively used for day-to-day operations, but it is still safely available under controlled conditions.
This retention period can support things like account reactivation if a team decides to return, keeping historical records intact for continuity, and meeting any required compliance or audit needs, depending on how the organization uses the platform.
The goal is simple. Nothing is lost suddenly, and everything remains secure until it is no longer needed.
How your data is stored during retention
During the retention period after cancelling Care Predictor, your data is kept in a secure environment rather than being used in everyday system activity. This means it is not “sitting in an open folder” but protected using controlled systems designed to limit access.
A simple way to understand this is to imagine a hospital archive room. Only specific staff with permission can enter, and every file is carefully tracked. In the same way, access to stored information is restricted through role-based controls, meaning only authorised users can view or manage it when necessary.
The data is also kept separate from active system operations. So even though the platform continues to run for other clients, your information is not part of ongoing workflows or daily processing.
In most secure systems like this, information is protected using encryption, which turns readable data into coded form so it cannot be easily accessed without permission. Your information is not actively used after cancellation unless there is a valid, permitted reason.
Permanent deletion of data
After the secure retention period ends, your data is permanently removed from Care Predictor. This means it is deleted in a way that cannot be recovered or restored. Once this step is completed, the information no longer exists in the system.
First, they are removed from daily use, and then they are destroyed so they cannot be rebuilt or accessed again.
In most secure systems, deletion also includes cleaning up any backup copies that may have been stored temporarily for safety reasons like disaster recovery. These backups are usually encrypted, which means they are locked in a coded format, and they are also removed after they are no longer needed.
Once the retention period is over, your information will not be stored anywhere. It is fully and permanently erased, ensuring there is no leftover trace within the system.
