Delete your account
You can permanently delete your Listahan account and personal data at any time — in the app, or by email if you no longer have the app or your device. Deletion is immediate: there is no waiting period, and no support ticket is required to use the in-app path.
Delete in the app
- 1 Open Listahan and sign in.
- 2 Go to Settings, then Privacy & data.
- 3 Under Advanced, tap "Delete my account."
- 4 Read the warning, and export a copy of your data first if you want one.
- 5 Type your account email to confirm, then tap "Delete my account permanently."
What gets deleted
Your account, always
Your login, profile, and personal data are permanently removed from our servers — immediately, not after a waiting period.
If you're the only person in your household
Your whole household — every member, plan, shopping list, and recipe — is erased along with your account.
If you share your household with others
Deleting your account removes only you — the rest of your household keeps its members, plans, lists, and recipes exactly as they are. If you're the household's owner, you'll be asked to either hand off ownership to another adult first, or explicitly choose to erase the whole household for everyone — your account is never deleted silently out from under a shared family.
Data retention
Deleted data is removed from our primary systems immediately. It may persist briefly in encrypted database backups used only for disaster recovery, not for everyday access, until those backups age out. See our Privacy Policy for the full picture of what we collect and why.
Lost your device, or can't sign in?
Email support@listahan.co from the email address on your account. We'll verify it's you and delete your account and personal data on your behalf.
