Delete your account

Permanent, immediate, and yours to do without asking us.

In the app

  1. Open Waven and go to your profile.
  2. Tap Settings.
  3. Tap Delete account, and confirm.

It happens straight away. There is no waiting period, no email to confirm, and nobody reviews it.

What gets deleted

  • Your profile, your chapters, and your interests
  • Your photos — the files themselves, not just the rows pointing at them
  • Your conversations, and every message you sent in them
  • Your circle posts and replies
  • Your sign-in itself, so the account cannot be recovered

Your open connections are closed at the same time, so the other person's list stays accurate rather than pointing at somebody who is no longer there.

What is not kept back

There is no archive, no soft-delete flag, and no copy held back for analytics. Safety reports you filed, and reports filed about you, go with the account too.

The one thing deletion cannot reach instantly is a sign-in token already issued to your own device: it stops being renewable the moment you delete, and expires on its own shortly after. Everything it could still read is already gone.

The full detail is in the privacy policy.

If you cannot get into the app

Email support@joinwaven.com from the address you signed up with, and we will delete the account for you.

It has to be that address. We will not delete an account on the say-so of somebody who cannot prove it is theirs, because that would let anyone erase anyone.
