Export or delete event and attendee data

Use export and deletion workflows carefully so attendee data remains useful for the event without living forever in extra files.

Use this page when data leaves the product

Exporting attendee data creates a file outside HereNow. That file can be helpful for check-in, operations, or records, but it also creates responsibility.

Deletion is different from export. It may affect event records, attendee communication, receipts, compliance, or support history. Ask support when you are unsure.

Handle export or deletion safely

  1. 1

    Decide why you need the data

    Export only when there is a real operational reason, such as check-in, backup, reconciliation, or host records.

  2. 2

    Download from the event management area

    Use the available attendee export action for the specific event. Avoid mixing data from unrelated events.

  3. 3

    Limit file access

    Share exports only with people who need the data to run the event.

  4. 4

    Clean up old files

    After the event, delete local copies or shared files that are no longer needed.

  5. 5

    Ask support for deletion help

    For deletion questions, include the account email, event link or slug, what data is involved, and who is making the request.

Export safety checklist

  • The export is for a real operational need.

  • The file is stored in a safe place.

  • Access is limited to event operators.

  • Old copies are deleted after use.

  • Sensitive requests go through support instead of public channels.

Do not paste attendee lists into chat

If support needs attendee-level data, ask for the safest way to share it. Avoid sending full CSV files through ordinary messages by default.

FAQ

Can I export attendee data for my event?

Yes, when export is available for the event. Use it for operations and store the file carefully.

Can I delete an exported file from HereNow?

HereNow cannot delete copies you downloaded or shared elsewhere. You need to remove local and shared copies yourself.

What should I include in a deletion request?

Include your account email, event link, requester role, the data involved, and the action you are requesting.
