Failure to provide sufficient information for identity verification may result in the rejection or suspension of the request.
5. Review of Requests
Upon receipt of a valid request, Nepal Guidify shall review the information requested and determine whether deletion, restriction, anonymization, or retention is appropriate under applicable laws and business requirements.
The Company reserves the right to reject requests that are unlawful, fraudulent, technically infeasible, or inconsistent with legal obligations.
6. Information That May Be Retained
Notwithstanding any deletion request, Nepal Guidify may retain information where retention is necessary:

- To establish, exercise, or defend legal claims;
- To comply with court orders or lawful government requests;
- To maintain necessary accounting, financial, and tax records.
7. User-Generated Content and Public Listings
Where permitted by law, Nepal Guidify may remove or deactivate business listings, marketplace content, directory submissions, or account-related content submitted by the requesting user.
However, information that has become publicly available through lawful means or has been independently reproduced by third parties may not be capable of complete removal.
8. Backup and Archived Information
Deleted information may continue to exist temporarily within backup systems, archival storage, disaster recovery systems, or security logs maintained for business continuity, regulatory compliance, and system integrity purposes.
Such information shall remain protected and shall not be restored except as required for legitimate operational purposes.
9. Third-Party Services
