Delete Your Account
Last updated: June 8, 2026
1. Delete From Inside The App
This is the fastest method. The in-app flow authenticates you and begins the deletion process immediately.
- Open Zcribbler and sign in.
- Go to your Profile tab.
- Tap Settings (gear icon) → Account.
- Scroll to the bottom and tap Delete My Account.
- Re-authenticate with Google or Apple when prompted.
- Confirm the action. Deletion starts immediately.
You'll be signed out and your account will become inaccessible right away. The retention timelines in Section 3 begin from that moment.
2. Requesting Deletion by Email
If you no longer have access to the device used to sign in, you may request deletion of your account by email.
Email deletion request
Send an email from the address linked to your Zcribbler account to:
Include:
- Your Zcribbler username (if you remember it)
- The email address you used to sign in
- Subject line: Account Deletion Request
We verify the request by confirming ownership of the signed-in email. We will process your deletion within 30 days and send you a confirmation once complete.
3. What Happens To Your Data
The table below shows what is deleted, what is retained, for how long, and why. Full retention details are in our Privacy Policy.

| Backup snapshots | Expire on normal backup rotation | Within 35 days of last backup containing your data |
After the retention periods expire, data is permanently and irreversibly deleted. We do not retain personal data longer than necessary for the stated purposes.
4. Account Recovery
During the 180-day soft-delete window, your account is inaccessible but can be restored by emailing [email protected] from the email you used to sign in.
After the 180-day window closes, deletion is permanent and cannot be reversed. You may always create a new account with the same email, but none of your previous content will be available.
5. Third-Party Sign-In Data
Deleting your Zcribbler account does not affect your Google or Apple accounts. It only removes the connection between those accounts and Zcribbler.
If you'd like to also revoke Zcribbler's access to your Google or Apple profile:
- Google: myaccount.google.com/permissions → Remove Zcribbler
- Apple: Settings → Apple ID → Sign in with Apple → Zcribbler → Stop using
