Ask us to delete your data.
You do not need to install an app, create an account, or sign in to make this request. Send one email and we will handle it.
How to make a request
Email privacy@areteventuresllc.com
That link opens a pre-filled message. If it does not work on your device, send a plain email to privacy@areteventuresllc.com with the subject Data deletion request.
Please include
- The name of the app.
- The email address or username associated with your account.
- Whether you want your entire account deleted, or onlyspecific data — and if so, which.
We may email you back to confirm the request came from you. That is the only thing we use the request for, and it is the only way we can be sure we are not deleting someone else's data on request.
How long it takes
- We acknowledge
- Within 5 business days of receiving your email.
- We complete deletion
- Within 30 days of confirming the request. Most are done well before that.
- We confirm to you
- By email, once the deletion has been carried out.
What gets deleted
When you ask us to delete your account, we remove the data we hold that is tied to it. Depending on the app, that includes:
- Your account record, including email address and any display name.
- Content you created in the app — entries, logs, tracked history, settings, and preferences.
- Any profiles you created for other people, such as a child profile.
- Device identifiers and push notification tokens linked to you.
- Any support correspondence you ask us to remove along with it.
Deletion is permanent. We cannot restore an account or its contents after the request has been completed, so please export anything you want to keep first.
What we keep, and why
A small amount of information survives a deletion request because the law requires it or because we could not prove we honoured your request without it. We keep the minimum, for a fixed period, and we do not use it for anything else.
- Purchase and transaction records
- Required for tax, accounting, and audit obligations. These are held by Apple or Google as the merchant of record; we retain only the minimum record needed to reconcile them.
Kept for: 7 years. - Records of the deletion request itself
- Retained so we can demonstrate the request was received and honored if a regulator asks.
Kept for: 2 years. - Backup copies
- Encrypted backups roll off on a fixed schedule. Deleted data stays in a backup until that backup expires, and is not restored to production.
Kept for: Up to 90 days after deletion.
