Can transaction history be deleted from the platform?

Transaction history cannot be deleted because companies operating trading platforms are required to store trade records in accordance with regulatory and auditing requirements. This is a mandatory obligation for all regulated financial companies and is not a matter of platform preference or user choice. Financial regulations require that a complete and unaltered record of all trading activity and financial transactions be maintained for a specified period, typically several years, to support regulatory oversight, compliance audits, and dispute-resolution processes.

These record-keeping requirements exist to protect all parties involved. For regulators, permanent transaction records provide the data needed to monitor market activity, investigate potential irregularities, and ensure companies are in compliance with applicable laws. For the company, maintaining complete records supports internal auditing, risk management, and the ability to respond to regulatory inquiries with accurate, verifiable information. For individual users, the inability to delete transaction history actually serves as a safeguard. It ensures that a transparent and tamper-proof record of all account activity is always available, which can be invaluable in the event of a dispute, an account query, or a need to verify past transactions.

While transaction history cannot be deleted, users retain full access to view, filter, and export their records at any time. The platform's history section provides tools to search and organise past transactions by date, instrument, type, or status, making it easy to locate specific records without scrolling through the entire history. If the volume of historical data makes navigation cumbersome, using the available filtering and export functions can help users focus on the specific time period or transaction type they are interested in. Users who have concerns about data privacy should review the platform's privacy policy, which outlines how personal and financial data is stored, protected, and managed in accordance with applicable data protection regulations.
