Repartee — Delete your account and data

Last updated: 13 July 2026

This page explains how to request deletion of your Repartee account and the personal data associated with it. It applies to the Repartee mobile app (iOS and Android) published by Thomas Debay (entrepreneur individuel, France).

You do not need to install or open the app to make a request — you can email us using the address below.

How to request deletion

Option 1 — In the app (fastest)

Step 1 — Open Repartee and sign in.
Step 2 — Go to Settings → Delete account.
Step 3 — Type DELETE to confirm.

Your recordings and replies are removed immediately and your session is ended.

Option 2 — By email

If you can no longer sign in, or you prefer to ask us directly, email repartee@thomasdebay.com from the address on your account with the subject "Delete my account". We will verify the request and complete the deletion, normally within 30 days.

What gets deleted

When you delete your account, we delete or irreversibly anonymise:

Your account details — name, email address, and login credentials, so the identity can never sign in again.
Your voice recordings — both the vocals you recorded and the voice messages you sent inside conversation threads. The underlying audio files are deleted from storage.
Your text messages inside threads.
Your onboarding / opinion responses.
Your profile details (such as native language and English level) and your push-notification token.

What is kept, and why

Repartee conversations are shared between two people, so a small amount of data is retained so that we do not destroy the other participant's conversation:

The conversation threads you took part in, and the messages other people recorded in them, are kept. Your own recordings are removed and your name and account link are detached from them.
Where one of your recordings started a conversation that others replied to, a silent placeholder (carrying no audio and no identifying information) is kept only so the other person's thread does not break.
Analytics events are retained only in a form that no longer identifies you.
We may retain the minimum information required to meet a legal obligation (for example, to document that a deletion request was handled).

Timing

In-app deletions take effect immediately.
Email requests are completed within 30 days.
Backups that may still contain residual copies are rotated and overwritten within our normal backup cycle, after which no copies remain.

Your wider privacy rights

Deletion is one of several rights you have. For access, correction, portability, objection, and consent withdrawal — and for full detail on what we collect and why — see our Privacy Policy, linked at the bottom of this page.
