Requesting a data export
Last reviewed: 25 May 2026
What's in an export
A single ZIP archive containing:
- profile.json — your profile fields and settings.
- journal.csv — every journal entry you ever logged in the app.
- subscriptions.csv — your subscription and billing history.
- signals-history.csv — every signal we published to your tier while you were active.
- kyc/ — your KYC documents and consent records.
- invoices/ — your GST invoices.
- README.txt — schema description so a data scientist (or a future you) can make sense of every field.
How to request one
- In the app, go to Settings → Privacy → Request data export.
- Tap Request — that's it.
- We email you a download link within 24 hours. The link is valid for 48 hours.
Why it isn't instant
A complete export joins data across the app database, KYC vendor and document store. Building it on demand for every user would slow the production system, so we batch it as a background job. In practice most exports finish in under an hour.
Frequency
You can request one export per 30 days. If you genuinely need a fresh one inside that window — for example, because of a hardware loss — email support@markov.in and we'll do it manually.
File format
CSV for tabular data so it opens in Excel/Numbers/Google Sheets. JSON for the profile because nested fields don't flatten cleanly. KYC documents are the original PDFs as Digio issued them.
