Account Deletion

Delete Your Running Machine Account

Running Machine supports in-app account deletion. This page explains the recommended in-app flow, the fallback support path if you cannot access the app, and the difference between data that is removed and data that may be retained temporarily.

Primary method
In-app Account -> Delete Account
Fallback support
contact@jaeyeon.com
Typical timeline
In-app deletion is intended to complete immediately after confirmation. Email fallback requests are typically acknowledged within 2 business days.

How to request deletion

  1. 1Open Running Machine and sign in to the account you want to delete.
  2. 2Go to the Account tab and choose Delete Account.
  3. 3Review the warning, then confirm deletion. The app will call the protected backend deletion flow and sign you out when the request succeeds.
  4. 4If you cannot access the app, email contact@jaeyeon.com with the subject "Running Machine Account Deletion" and include the email address linked to your account.

Important notes

  • If you used multiple devices, local data stored on another device may remain there until the app data is cleared on that device as well.
  • Deleting the account removes synced cloud data and does not restore past runs if you later create a new account.
  • If the in-app deletion request fails, contact support and include enough information to verify account ownership.

Data that may be deleted

  • Firebase Authentication account record for the deleted user.
  • Synced user document and synced run history stored under the account.
  • Account-linked operational records needed to support extraction and sync.
  • Local cached history on the device that successfully completes the in-app deletion flow.

Data that may be retained

  • Limited operational logs or backups that may persist temporarily until routine deletion or overwrite.
  • Support correspondence needed to verify or document a deletion request.
  • Records that must be retained temporarily for security, fraud prevention, or legal compliance.
