1. Delete your account from the App
- Open RunWars and sign in.
- Go to Profile (bottom menu).
- Scroll down and tap Delete account.
- Confirm in the dialog.
The Delete account action sends a request to our backend to delete your account (
DELETE /api/v1/users/me) and then signs you out on your device.2. If you cannot access the App (manual deletion)
If you cannot sign in (e.g., you uninstalled the App), you can request manual deletion:
- Email: support@runwars.app
- Subject: "Account Deletion Request"
- Include your username and the email address associated with your account.
3. What is deleted on the server
When deletion is processed, we delete and/or unlink data associated with your account, including:
- Account & profile: user identifier, email, username, optional name fields, avatar, and profile settings.
- Game data: progress/statistics and user-linked game records necessary for participation.
- Notifications: push token registrations linked to your user.
- Strava link: the connection between your user and Strava (if connected).
- Synced activities: activities linked to your account in RunWars and derived data.
4. What happens to data stored on your device
RunWars uses local storage for offline support (e.g., a local database for activities/GPS points and a queue for pending actions). After account deletion, the App signs you out and clears stored credentials/tokens from secure storage; however, some local cached/database data may remain on the device until you clear the App's storage or uninstall it.
- To remove local data: uninstall the App or use your OS settings to clear RunWars app storage/data.
5. Retention and backups
- Active systems: deletion aims to remove your data from active systems.
- Backups: some data may remain in encrypted backups for a limited period until overwritten, and is not used to restore your account except in exceptional technical operations.
