Delete your Areed account
This page explains how to request the deletion of your Areed account and its associated data.
Option 1: in the app (immediate)
- Open the Areed app and sign in.
- Go to Account → Delete account.
- Read what will be deleted and confirm.
The deletion happens immediately after confirmation.
Option 2: without the app
If the app is no longer installed or you cannot sign in, send a deletion request from the phone number registered on the account to:
- WhatsApp: (to be published)
- Email: (to be published) (include your phone number and username)
We may ask you to prove ownership of the number before deleting; requests are completed within 30 days at most.
What is deleted
- Your phone number on the account, your profile photo and store logo; your name is replaced by "Deleted user".
- Sessions, registered devices and push tokens, favorites, block list and notifications.
- Your listings, store and bank accounts are hidden immediately from everyone.
What is kept and why
- Messages you already sent remain with the other participant (who sees your account as unavailable).
- Records of deleted listings, reports, violations and the admin audit log: for moderation, fraud prevention and legal obligations.
- Verification-code request records are deleted automatically after 7 days, server logs after 14 days.
You can create a new account later with the same phone number. See the privacy policy for details.
