  2. By email (no app required): Send a message to the address below from the email address associated with your account, with the subject line "Delete my account." We'll confirm your identity and process the request.

About shared product knowledge: When beforeUBuy researches issues for a product you scanned that wasn't yet in our database, that issue information (e.g. "this model is known for X") becomes part of a shared knowledge base that helps other users who scan the same product later. This information was never linked to your name or account in a way visible to others, and deleting your account doesn't remove it — since it isn't personal to you and continues to help the wider beforeUBuy community.
