Delete an account

Draft for product review. This page is not a claim that Who Do Deal meets a store policy or a privacy law. Counsel still needs to review it before a public launch.

This is the web deletion route. The Android app has the same action on the account screen. Both call the server, check the password, and delete the account in the database.

What the deletion does

Removes the password, email, display name, and sessions.
Removes ratings, comments, saved offers, and blocks.
Removes a company profile and the offers that belonged to it.
Keeps moderation reasons, with the reporter detached and the original story replaced, so a reviewed case is not silently erased.
Writes a deletion record that does not store the email address.

An email-only request is not processed. Without a mail provider, Who Do Deal cannot prove that a stranger owns the inbox, and a bare email form could delete the wrong person. Production still needs a confirmed-email path for people who cannot sign in.
