These guides exist to answer one practical question: what is the current, official way to export and delete an account or its personal data?
First-party sources first
Each guide links to the service's own help centre, privacy centre, or account controls. Third-party directories can help us discover a service, but they are not the source of deletion steps or timelines.
What a guide must include
- A clear distinction between uninstalling an app, deactivation, and permanent deletion.
- An export or download step when the service provides one.
- Short, ordered instructions that match the service's current labels.
- Waiting periods, reversal windows, and data that may remain, stated with the service's own qualifications.
- A direct link to the official instructions so you can verify the process before acting.
How updates work
Account menus and retention policies change. We show an update date on every guide and revise the steps when the official source changes. If a service's instructions disagree with this page, follow the official source and let us know through Breakup support.
