What We Delete or Anonymize

We remove sessions and relationships, and scrub or anonymize personally identifiable information (PII). Some posts are anonymized/hidden, but all PII is removed. In particular:

• All active sessions are deleted (sign‑out everywhere).
• Blocks and friend relationships are removed.
• Your posts are marked deleted and hidden from the site.
• Your profile is anonymized: name becomes “Deleted User”, username becomes deleted_{ID}.
• PII is cleared: email, phone, address, social links, avatars/covers, and bio.
• Encryption material and 2FA are removed/disabled (public/private keys, 2FA secret).
• Privacy defaults are set to the most restrictive (“Only Me”).
• The account is blocked from further use.

Direct messages are end‑to‑end encrypted and are not accessible to us. For details, see E2EE explained.
