Delete Your Account

Last updated: August 16, 2026

You can permanently delete your NetworX account at any time, directly from inside the app. This page explains what gets deleted, what is retained, and how the process works.

This action is permanent and irreversible. Once your account is deleted, your data cannot be recovered.

How to Delete Your Account

Account deletion is performed directly inside the NetworX app. There is no waiting period — deletion happens immediately upon confirmation.

Open the NetworX app and sign in to your account.
Tap your profile picture or navigate to Profile.
Open Settings (the gear or menu icon).
Scroll to the bottom and tap "Delete Account".
Enter your current password to confirm your identity.
Tap "Confirm Delete". Your account and all associated data are immediately and permanently erased.

Your password is required as a security measure to prevent accidental or unauthorised deletion. If you have forgotten your password, use the "Forgot Password" option on the login screen to reset it first.

What Gets Deleted

When you confirm account deletion, the following data is permanently removed from our systems:

Your account credentials (username, email address, hashed password)
Your profile information (display name, bio, profile picture)
All posts, reposts, and poll responses you created
All comments and comment reactions you made
All reactions (likes) you gave or received
All direct messages and chat history
Your follow relationships (followers and following)
Your group memberships and any groups you created or moderated
All notifications sent to or from your account
Any reports you filed or received
Your block list and blocked-by records
Your notification preferences

What Is Retained

After deletion, the following may be retained:

Aggregated, anonymised analytics — statistics that cannot be linked back to you (e.g., total post count trends). These contain no personal information.
Server logs — request logs that include your IP address are automatically purged within 30 days of your last activity.
Legal obligations — in rare cases, we may be required by law to retain certain records for a defined period.

Delete via Email Request

If you are unable to access the app (e.g., you no longer have your device), you can request deletion by emailing us:

Email: support@networx.social
Subject: Account Deletion Request
Include: the email address associated with your account and your username

We will verify your identity and process the deletion within 7 business days. You will receive a confirmation email once complete.

For security, we cannot process deletion requests that do not include sufficient identifying information. We will never delete an account based solely on a display name.

After Deletion

You will be immediately signed out of the app on all devices.
Your username becomes available for registration by other users after a short grace period.
Any content visible to other users (such as posts or comments) will also be removed.
You can create a new NetworX account at any time using the same or a different email address.

Questions

If you have questions about the deletion process or your data rights, see our Privacy Policy or our Child Safety Standards, or contact us at support@networx.social.
