Erasing your SMS consent records

Updated April 21, 2026

Under GDPR (Europe) and CCPA (California), you have the right to request deletion of personal data. For SMS consent records, we anonymize rather than delete — we keep the minimum proof-of-consent trail Twilio requires, with your identity stripped.

What erasure does

  • Removes your user link, IP address, user-agent, and any notes from every SMS consent record tied to your phone.
  • Keeps the minimal compliance trail: phone number, opt-in/out action, source, disclosure text version.
  • Records a fresh opt-out so your history reflects the erasure event.
  • Disables SMS on your account.

What erasure does not do

  • It doesn't delete your profile or your event history (those are governed by your organization's data retention policy).
  • It doesn't prevent you from opting back in later (a new consent record is created from scratch).

How to request erasure

  1. Account → Notification Preferences → View your SMS opt-in/out history.
  2. Click Request erasure at the top-right.
  3. Read the confirmation page. It lists the phone numbers that will be anonymized.
  4. Click Anonymize my records and confirm.

The erasure runs immediately. You'll see the fresh opt-out entry in your history.
