What gets deleted

  • Your account, sign-in details and profile information
  • Your posts, comments, saved items, follows and exam attempts
  • Profiles you own. If a profile has collaborators, it is handed to one of them instead so the page stays up.

How long it takes

In the app, deletion is immediate. Email requests are verified as coming from the account owner and completed within 30 days.

What we may keep

Records we must keep by law, such as marketplace order receipts, are kept with your account unlinked, only as long as required.

See our Privacy Policy for more on how we handle your data.
