Exporting Your Data

You can now export your data to CSV files, which can be opened as spreadsheets to simplify your transition using the new “DOWNLOADS” option on the dashboard. This option is only available on desktop, not mobile.

We’ve valued your business and regret any disruption that this may cause.

Any data left on the platform will be permanently deleted on March 1, 2020.

With the greatest appreciation and most sincere thanks for your business,
