Switching and data portability
Version 2.0, effective 9 November 2026.
Last updated: 9 November 2026.
You can take your data with you at any time, at no extra cost. This page is the specification of exportable data, formats and procedures referred to in Article 14 of our General Terms and Conditions and in Chapter VI of the EU Data Act (Regulation (EU) 2023/2854).
How switching works
- Notice. Tell us through the customer portal (my.binadit.com) or by e-mail to support@binadit.com that you want to switch to another provider, move to your own infrastructure, or have your data erased. The notice period is one calendar month.
- Transitional period. After the notice period, you have up to 30 calendar days to complete the switch. Your service keeps running at the agreed fees and we provide reasonable assistance.
- Data retrieval period. After the transitional period, you have at least 30 more calendar days to retrieve your data.
- Erasure. After the data retrieval period, we fully erase your data. Encrypted backups are removed through the regular rotation within 90 days. On request, we confirm the erasure in writing.
We charge no switching or data egress fees.
