Data Deletion

1. How to delete your account

FastBro accounts are anonymous — created silently on first launch, with no email, phone number, or name required. You can delete your account at any time, directly inside the app:

1. Open FastBro and go to the Settings tab.
2. Scroll to the "Data & Privacy" card.
3. Tap "Delete my account and all data".
4. Review the confirmation dialog — it explains that deletion is permanent and cannot be undone — and confirm.
5. Wait for the app to finish. It clears your device data, signs you out, and reloads automatically when deletion is complete.

2. What gets deleted

The server-side deletion runs as a single database transaction the moment you confirm — there is no grace period and no way to recover a deleted account. It removes the account itself and every database row linked to it:

1. Your account record — the anonymous identity all other data hangs off. Deleting it cascades automatically to everything below.
2. All synced app data — fasting history, calories/food log, Ledger entries, and Lab Notes.
3. Your social profile — display name, XP, level, badges, boss defeats, and Premium status.
4. Multiplayer data — friendships, squads, squad memberships and goals, Ghost Races you created or took part in, live race progress, and streak wagers.
5. Your recovery code — the stored hash of your recovery code, so it can never be used again.
6. Push notification subscriptions — your device tokens are removed.
7. Purchase and reward records — your Premium purchase-ledger entries and any beta-program reward records.
8. XP event history, referrals you received, and referral invite codes you created.
9. Feedback you submitted through the in-app feedback form.
10. On your device — the app also clears its locally stored data (including the encrypted Vault backup file), removes any pending OS notifications, blanks the home-screen widget, and signs out. A fresh install on the same device afterwards starts as a brand-new account.
11. Anonymous crash reports from this device — if you had crash reporting switched on, the reports this phone uploaded are deleted as well. They carry no account link by design, so the app sends its own random per-install identifier along with the delete request and every stored report carrying that identifier is removed (see section 4).

3. What is kept, and for how long

FastBro keeps no name, email, or phone number — there is nothing identifying to retain after deletion. A small number of residual traces exist, none of them identifying:

FastBro does not build or keep any anonymized or aggregate profile of you after deletion.

1. Authentication-provider records — our authentication provider (Supabase) retains a minimal internal record of a deleted user for a short window as part of its normal account-removal process. It contains no FastBro app data, no name, and no contact details.
2. Reference placeholders in shared content — where your account was referenced from content shared with other users (a race you won, an opponent slot, an invite you redeemed), the shared row remains but the reference to you is nulled out and no longer points to any account or person.
3. Server logs and backups — like any online service, our infrastructure provider maintains short-lived operational logs and routine database backups outside the application database. These age out on the provider's normal schedule (days to weeks), cannot be queried through the app, and are accessible only to the operator for incident response.
4. Google Play purchase records — if you bought Premium, Google (not FastBro) keeps the transaction record for tax and consumer-protection reasons. FastBro stores only a hashed purchase token, which is deleted with your account; Google's records are governed by Google's own privacy policy.

4. Crash reports (opt-in)

If you opted in to anonymous crash reporting (Settings → "Help improve FastBro — send anonymous crash reports"), each report is keyed to a random per-install device identifier instead of your account, and is never linked to you by name, account, or health data. Deleting your account in the app also deletes the reports that device uploaded: the app sends its own identifier with the delete request, and the deletion removes every stored report carrying it.

Two cases are outside what the app can reach: reports from a device you no longer have, and reports uploaded by a version of the app released before this behaviour shipped. Those rows contain no account, name, or health data, are accessible only to the operator, and are deleted once they are no longer needed to fix the underlying problem — and you can ask us to delete stored reports via the contact below. Turning the toggle off stops collection immediately in every case. See the Privacy Policy (/legal/privacy) for details.

5. Can't use the in-app flow?

In-app deletion requires the app and its stored session, so it is not available if you already uninstalled the app, lost your recovery code, or the delete button fails. This page is also the request channel for any other deletion request under the GDPR or Google Play's User Data policy (including data collected from children — we do not knowingly collect any; see the Privacy Policy). In any of those cases, email us and we will delete your account for you:

1. Email Privacy.appsss@proton.me with the subject line "Data deletion request".
2. Include anything that helps us find the account — most importantly the recovery code if you saved one; otherwise the approximate sign-up date and the display name others saw in races or leaderboards. FastBro accounts are anonymous, so this context is what lets us locate the right row.
3. We will confirm by reply once the deletion is done. If we cannot uniquely identify the account (possible for an anonymous account with no recovery code), we will tell you so honestly — in that case the account is unreachable and effectively orphaned: it holds no identifying data.
