Periyo — Request Data Deletion
Last updated: October 4, 2026
You can delete your Periyo account and data yourself, right in the app, or by contacting us. Both are described below.
Delete it in the app (fastest)
- Open Periyo and go to Settings.
- Tap Back Up My Account, then scroll to Delete my account.
- Tap Delete my account and data and confirm. Deletion happens immediately.
If you have a Plus or Pro subscription, cancel it in the Google Play Store as well. Deleting your account does not cancel billing.
Or request deletion by email
- Email contact@periyoapp.com from any email address.
- Let us know you'd like your Periyo data deleted, and include any identifying details you can (the name(s) you used on your profile(s), roughly when you used the app, and the phone/device you used it on).
- We'll confirm your request and delete the associated data within 30 days.
What gets deleted
- All profile information across your Personal, Professional, and Other profiles — including your name, photo, bio, and every field you filled in.
- Location data associated with your device.
- Your device identifier and any records tied to it, along with your login and email address if you backed up your account.
- Connected Spotify data, if you connected your account.
- Match history and notification records associated with your device.
What we may retain
We may retain minimal records (such as an anonymized log that a deletion request was made and fulfilled, and a record that a promo code was redeemed on a device, so codes can't be reused) as needed to comply with legal obligations, prevent misuse, or resolve disputes. No personally identifiable profile data is kept once a deletion request is processed.
