Delete your account

Updated November 10, 2026

You can delete your Aty account yourself, in the app. Here's how, and what happens to your data after.

On the web or the computer app

Sign in and click the gear next to your name to open Settings.
Go to Security.
Click Delete account and confirm. You'll type your password, or your two-step code if your account has no password.

Open the You tab and tap the gear to open Settings.
Under Account, tap Delete account.
Type your password (or your two-step code, if your account has no password), tap Delete my account and confirm.

Either way, if you own a community, transfer it to someone or delete it first. The app will tell you which ones.

Write to support@aty.gg from the email on your account and ask us to delete it. We may ask you to confirm it's really you.

You're signed out on every device right away. You show as offline and nobody can send you direct messages, except in group chats you're already in.
You have 14 days to change your mind. Just sign in again with your password, Google or a passkey and the deletion is canceled.
After 14 days we erase your profile, photo, banner, join sound and linked sign-ins, like Google.
Messages you sent, and the files attached to them, stay where they are, under the name "Deleted account". If you want any of them gone, delete them before you delete the account.

Access records (IP address, app, device and time) stay for 1 year. The law asks for at least 6 months.
A record for legal requests. We save a file about the account: name, username, email, dates, linked sign-ins and which messages were yours. If the account had reports or moderation, the file also includes that history, the communities it was in, its invites and the app it used. It stays locked for up to 5 years and is only opened if a court or other authority asks for it. Only admins can open it, and every time they do, it's logged.
Purchase records, if you bought something, are kept by us and by Stripe, which handles payments, because tax law requires it.
Backups of the database are deleted on their own after about a month.
