Cancel Tactiq and delete what it has

Cancelling the paid plan and deleting what Tactiq recorded are separate steps — cancelling alone deletes nothing. Here is each one, in Tactiq's own words.

From Tactiq's own help pagesRead on 10 November 2026

Cancel the paid plan

  1. Account & Settings → Billing, scroll to Billing actions, Cancel the subscription, and confirm. You keep the paid features to the end of the cycle, then drop to the free plan. Only a team admin can cancel a team plan.

Delete recordings and notes

  1. Transcripts are deleted in two steps: Archive it on My Meetings, then open the Archive folder and click Delete beside it.
  2. Anything left in the Archive is deleted by itself after 30 days, and can be restored until then.

Delete the account

  1. Settings → Account, scroll to Danger Zone, open Deleting your account, and Request account deletion. In a team, leave the team first.
  2. With a paid plan running you are asked to cancel it, and the account can only be deleted once that billing period ends.
  3. Deletion takes up to five business days and ends with a confirmation email. For the first two business days Cancel account deletion undoes it.
  4. Only you can do it — Tactiq says it never deletes accounts on someone’s behalf.

Good to know

Deleting the account deletes every transcript in it. Removing the Chrome extension on its own deletes nothing.

If a recording of you is in somebody else's account

Deleting your own account does not touch recordings other people made of meetings you were in — those belong to whoever recorded them. Ask that person to delete it, or ask Tactiq to pass the request on.

Meetings without a notetaker to get rid of

Meetful writes the notes from each person's own microphone inside the meeting, so there is no bot to invite, no separate account holding your recordings, and anybody can leave themselves out of the notes.
