Account deletion

Delete your Acetique account.

Deletion is done in the app, it takes one tap, and it is immediate. This page explains exactly what goes, the one thing that stays, and what to do if the app is no longer installed.

How to delete it

  1. Open Settings — the gear on Home.
  2. Scroll to Privacy.
  3. Tap Delete account and confirm.

There is no form on this page, and that is deliberate — see why there is no form here. If you want a copy of your data first, Settings → Privacy → Export my data produces one; after deletion there is nothing left to export.

What is deleted

The account is hard-deleted — removed, not flagged or hidden — and everything tied to it goes in the same operation:

  • Your profile and display name
  • Every hand and decision recorded against you, and the accuracy that was computed from them
  • Your points ledger, level, awards and streaks
  • Your season ranks — the account disappears from every leaderboard, global, friends and season alike
  • Your friend connections and any invite links you issued
  • Your device's session token, which stops working the moment it is done

There is no undo, no grace period and no copy we can restore. Chips and progress are gone; opening the app again mints a new anonymous account that starts at nothing.

What is kept, and why

Your advertising and tracking choices outlive the account. When you delete it, the record of each consent decision — the purpose, whether you granted it, and when — is kept. It is detached from the deleted account first, so it no longer points at a user; what remains is that a choice of that kind was made at that time.

We keep it because a consent record is the only evidence that consent was asked for and given properly, and we have to be able to demonstrate that. It cannot be used to identify you, to advertise to you, or to rebuild an account, and it holds nothing about how you played.

That is the only exception. Technical logs written by the host — request lines, no account content — age out on a short rolling window of their own and are not searched or reconstructed into anything. The Privacy Policy sets out both in full.

How long it takes

Immediately. The deletion runs as a single database transaction while you wait: by the time the confirmation is on screen the account and its rows are gone and the token has stopped working. Nothing is queued for later and there is nothing to chase up.

Backups are the one lag, and they are not searchable: the host's encrypted snapshots roll forward on their own schedule and a deleted account leaves them as they expire. No snapshot is ever restored to bring an account back.

Why there is no form on this page

Acetique accounts are anonymous. There is no email address, no username and no sign-in — the app mints a token on first launch and that token is the account. So a web form here would have nothing to look you up by, and the honest options are a form that deletes the wrong account or a form that deletes nothing.

The app is the proof that an account is yours: a request made from it is authenticated, an email is not. That is why deletion lives there. It is a consequence of collecting so little, not an attempt to make deletion hard — it is one tap and it needs no contact with us at all.

If you have already deleted the app

Write to support@acetique.app and we will do what we can. Be aware of what the paragraph above means in practice: with no account identifier there may be nothing we can match you to, and we would rather say so than delete a stranger's account on a guess. Tell us roughly when you played and the display name you used, if you set one.

The simpler route, if the phone still has the account on it, is to reinstall the app — the account comes back with the device token — and delete it from Settings → Privacy. Reinstalling on a different phone does not: a new device is a new anonymous account.
