At howtodelete.me, we are committed to protecting your privacy.
We believe in practicing what we preach — just as we help you learn how to delete online accounts elsewhere, we minimize the amount of data collected on our own site.
Our mission is to make account deletion transparent and accessible — without tracking, profiling, or monetizing your personal data.
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track the activity on our Service and hold certain information.
Cookies are files with small amount of data which may include an anonymous unique identifier. Cookies are sent to your browser from a website and stored on your device.
You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Service.
We use Google AdSense to serve ads on our website. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site.
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visit to our site or other sites on the Internet.
Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
We use Google Analytics to monitor and analyze the use of our website. Google Analytics is a web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic.
Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of our Service. This data is shared with other Google services. Google may use the collected data to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network.
You can opt-out of having made your activity on the Service available to Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Our content includes links to external websites — typically the official help or support pages of the services you want to delete accounts from.
