What happens to your data

When you delete your account:

  • your profile — name, photo, biography, phone number, nationality, interests and links — is removed, and you disappear from the participant directory;
  • your registration answers, saved sessions, followed speakers, notifications, push tokens and sign-in sessions are deleted, and any open registration is cancelled;
  • the sign-in details stored for Face ID on your device are removed;
  • messages you already sent stay in the other participants' conversations, but are shown from "Deleted user", without your name or photo;
  • we keep only what the law requires us to keep (for example, records of attendance at an event you attended), and our backups roll off within the periods in section 7.

Deletion cannot be undone.

This is section 10 of our Privacy Policy.
