Account and personal data deletion
Last updated: July 8, 2026
At Cafesito we respect your privacy and your right to control your data. You can request account deletion from the app while signed in, or by email if you cannot access your account.
How to delete your account from the app (recommended)
You must be signed in on iOS, Android or web. The flow is the same on every platform:
- Open the Profile tab.
- Tap Options (settings icon in the top bar).
- Under Account, choose Delete my account and data.
- Read the confirmation message and confirm.
After confirmation the app signs you out immediately. You do not need to contact support if you can access your account.
What happens when you confirm
Cafesito uses a two-phase deletion process with a 30-day safety window:
- Immediate deactivation. Your account moves to
inactive_pending_deletion: you can no longer use the app normally and your session is closed. - Deletion scheduled. We store
deactivation_requested_atandscheduled_deletion_at(30 days later). - Grace period (30 days). If you sign in again before that date, the process is automatically cancelled and your account returns to active status.
- Permanent deletion. If you do not sign in within 30 days, your account and linked data are permanently removed.
What data is deleted
When deletion completes, we remove among other things:
- Your profile and authentication data.
- Pantry, diary, brews and saved recipes.
- Ratings, lists, favorites and sensory profile (DNA).
- Posts, comments, likes, followers and messages tied to your account.
- Notifications and device push tokens.
Some data may be kept in anonymized form or for the minimum period required by law.
How to cancel deletion
If you change your mind within 30 days, simply sign in again with the same account (Google or Apple). The app checks that scheduled_deletion_at has not passed, reactivates your account and cancels deletion.
If you cannot access the app
Email hola@cafesitoapp.com from your registration address and include your account email, username if you remember it, and a clear deletion request.
Timelines
- Immediate: sign-out and account deactivation.
- Up to 30 days: you can cancel by signing in again.
- After 30 days: permanent deletion with no recovery.
