- Account profile information.
- Registered email address and mobile number.
- Account identifiers and preferences.
- Personal information associated with the account.
- User-generated content associated with the account, where deletion is applicable and technically supported.
BYST will also assess information stored or processed by relevant service providers.

In certain circumstances, BYST may retain limited information where required or permitted by law, or where necessary for legitimate purposes such as:
- Legal and regulatory compliance.
- Security and fraud prevention.
