From the app (recommended)
- Open SentinElles → profile icon → Paramètres (Settings).
- Under "Actions irréversibles", tap "Supprimer mon compte" (Delete my account).
- Confirm the deletion.
Deletion is immediate and permanent.
Without the app
If you no longer have the app or access to your phone, write to privacy@sentinellesapp.fr stating the account's phone number. We verify that the number is really yours before erasing (the account is phone-based — it is the only way to make sure the request comes from you). Answer within 30 days at most, usually a few days.
What gets erased
- Your phone number and your account.
- Your sessions, reports, "I'm here" presences, messages, mood notes.
- The result of your identity verification, at SentinElles and at our processor Didit (timestamped erasure). As a reminder, no image of your ID document or selfie is ever retained by SentinElles.
- The key linking your pseudonymized usage data to your account is destroyed at deletion time: what remains becomes permanently anonymous and unrecoverable — nobody, not even the team, can link it back to you.
What is kept
- Aggregated statistics (e.g. "N reports in an area of roughly 150 m"), which cannot identify you.
- A pseudonymous deletion marker, containing no personal data (derived from an already-irreversible hash), kept for 12 months then purged. Its only purpose is moderating abusive delete-and-re-signup cycles; it never blocks a re-signup.
- If the account was closed by the team for breaching the Terms of Use: the number can remain blocked from signing up again.
