Delete Your SwearGPS Account
This page explains how to request deletion of your SwearGPS account and the personal data associated with it. No login required to read it, and no hoops to jump through to use it.
How to request deletion
There are two ways to request deletion of your SwearGPS account and associated personal data:
- In the app — open Settings, then Account, then Delete Account, where that option is available in your version of the app.
- By email — send a request to privacy@sweargps.com from the email address associated with your account, with the subject line “Account Deletion Request.”
So we can find the right account, please include the email address or account identifier you use with SwearGPS. We may need to verify that the request is genuinely coming from you before we act on it — that verification protects your account from someone else deleting it.
Email an account deletion request
What gets deleted
When a deletion request is completed, we delete or de-identify the personal data associated with your SwearGPS account, which may include:
- Your account record and account identifiers
- Your email address and any profile information you provided
- Saved destinations, favorites, and place names
- App settings and personality, humor, and profanity preferences
- Any location or route history stored in association with your account
- Support correspondence linked to your account, where not required for the reasons below
- Any community reports you submitted, de-identified from you
What may need to be retained
Some information may be retained after deletion where we are legally required or permitted to keep it. This typically includes:
- Transaction and billing records — required for tax, accounting, and financial recordkeeping obligations. Note that subscription purchase records are also held by the app store or payment platform, and we cannot delete records held by them.
- Fraud, abuse, and security records — limited information kept to prevent abuse and protect the Service and its users.
- Legal hold material — information subject to a legal obligation, dispute, or lawful request.
- Aggregated or de-identified data — information that can no longer be linked to you and is used for analytics and product improvement.
- Backups — residual copies may persist in routine encrypted backups for a limited period until those backups expire on their normal cycle.
How long deletion takes
We aim to acknowledge deletion requests within 7 days and to complete verified deletion within 30 days. Where applicable law provides a different deadline, we follow that deadline. Residual copies in routine encrypted backups are removed as those backups cycle out, generally within 90 days.
Important things to know first
Deleting your account does not cancel a paid subscription. If you have SwearGPS Pro, cancel it through the app store or platform where you purchased it before deleting your account, or you may continue to be billed. See Subscription Terms.
- Account deletion is permanent. Saved destinations and settings cannot be recovered afterward.
- Deleting the app from your device is not the same as deleting your account.
- You can create a new account later, but it will start empty.
Other privacy requests
You do not have to delete your whole account to exercise your privacy rights. You can also request access to your data, correction of it, or a portable copy of it. Email privacy@sweargps.com and describe what you need. See our Privacy Policy for the full picture.
