Delete your Halve account
Halve, by Timothy Leong
You can delete your Halve account and its data at any time, in the app or by email.
In the app
- Open Halve and tap the round button with your initial, at the top of the Groups screen, to open Profile.
- Tap Delete account.
- If anything is in the way, the app lists it with a link to each group:
- a balance that isn’t settled yet: settle up first;
- a group you own that others still use: hand over ownership in People first.
- Type DELETE and tap Delete my account. It happens straight away and you are signed out.
By email
If you can’t use the app, email [email protected] from the email address on your account, with the subject “Delete my Halve account”. I’ll confirm the request with you and delete the account within 30 days. If you still owe or are owed money in a group, I’ll let you know first, since deleting can’t be undone.
What gets deleted
- Your email address, password and display name.
- Every group where you are the only person on the app, with all its expenses, repayments, budget and activity.
What is kept, and why
- In groups that carry on, the expenses and repayments you were part of stay, shown under “Deleted user”, so everyone else’s balances and history stay correct. They are no longer linked to your name or email.
- Daily backups, made for disaster recovery, may hold your data for up to 7 days, after which they are deleted automatically.
Deleting your account can’t be undone. More detail is in the Privacy Policy.
