You can delete your YourLight account at any time, directly from the app. Deletion is permanent — once you confirm, your account and all the data tied to it are removed and can't be recovered.
DELETE when prompted, then confirm.The deletion runs immediately. You'll see a confirmation and the app will sign you out. There's no waiting period and no undo.
If you had any active Lights when you deleted, the people who had joined them are notified that the Light has ended — so they aren't left wondering.
A small amount of cross-user data may remain for audit reasons. For example, a notification that was sent to a friend about your past activity remains in their notification history (your name appears in that record, but your account itself is gone). Aggregate, non-personal counts (e.g. "X Lights posted today") may also persist in aggregated form. None of this is visible to anyone other than the original recipient.
If you can no longer access YourLight — lost phone, deleted the app, forgot your password — email us at support@yourlight.me from the address you signed up with. We'll process your deletion manually within 1–2 business days.
See our Privacy Policy for details on what we collect and how we use it, or email support@yourlight.me.
