Deleting your account and data
Option 1 — right in the app (fastest)
Open TukTuk → Settings → Account → Delete account. If you have set a password, you'll need to enter it to confirm. Deletion happens immediately and cannot be undone.
Option 2 — if you no longer have access to the app
Email info@tuktukme.com with the subject "Account deletion" and include your username and the email linked to your account — we need this to make sure the request really comes from you. We process these requests manually, usually within 10 days.
What exactly is deleted
- Profile: name, avatar, phone number / username, linked email
- Encryption keys and active sessions on all devices — you'll be signed out everywhere
- Contacts and block list
- Quick replies
- Messages and reactions you've received, and attachments awaiting delivery
- Group memberships — if you owned a group, ownership passes to the next most senior member, and if the group becomes empty, it is deleted
- Records of the devices you signed in from
What cannot be recovered
Deletion is irreversible: once your account is deleted, neither we nor you can undo it or restore your conversations.
Timeline
Deletion in the app is instant. Email requests are processed within 30 days; database backups, if any exist at the time of the request, are rotated and completely removed within the same period.
