Delete your Heartwave account
You can delete your account and its data yourself, at any time.
In the app (fastest)
- Open Heartwave and go to Profile.
- Scroll to the bottom and tap Delete account.
- Enter your password, type DELETE to confirm, and tap the delete button.
Deletion happens straight away and cannot be undone.
What is deleted

We may keep a small amount of information where the law requires it or to deal with safety reports and fraud (for example to stop a banned person registering again). Backups are overwritten on a rolling schedule. See the Privacy Policy.
If you cannot open the app
Email support@heartwavedating.com from the address you signed up with and write "Delete my account". We may ask you to confirm it is you, and we aim to complete the request within 30 days.
Just want a break?
You can pause your account instead (Profile → Pause account). You are hidden and can come back whenever you like.
