This guide explains how to permanently delete your Orgo account and what happens to your data when you do so. This information is provided to comply with Google Play Store requirements for user data deletion.
1. How to delete your account
Account deletion can be completed only from inside the mobile app. We do not process deletion requests by email or web form.
Steps to delete your account:
Important: Once you confirm, the process is irreversible. You will lose all content and any in-app progress linked to the account.
2. What data are erased immediately
The following data will be immediately removed from our production database:
| Category | Examples | When removed |
|---|---|---|
| Personal identifiers | Name, username, profile photo, email address, phone number | Instantly from the production database |
| Profile & preferences | Bio, saved settings, language, themes | Instantly |
| App activity | Check-ins, likes, comments, uploaded media, device-level tokens | Instantly |
| Credentials | Hashed password, refresh tokens, social-login bindings | Instantly |
3. What data we still keep (and why)
Some data may be retained for legal, security, or technical reasons:
| Data retained | Purpose | Retention period |
|---|---|---|
| Purchase & billing records | Legal accounting, tax, refund audits | 5 years (statutory) |
| Security & fraud-prevention logs | Detect abuse, ensure service integrity | 180 days, then purged |
| Encrypted database backups | Disaster-recovery only (no direct use) | ≤ 30 days, after which backups are overwritten |
All retained items are isolated from live systems and cannot be linked back to you once primary data have been erased.
4. Can I delete specific data instead of my whole account?
No. Deletion is all-or-nothing to ensure we meet privacy-by-design principles. If you only wish to pause notifications or hide your profile, use the Privacy section inside the app.
