Delete Your Trivia Tussle Account and Data

Delete the Active Account in the App

The app first prepares the deletion request, then asks Firebase Authentication to delete the active account. If Firebase requires a recent sign-in, the deletion is cancelled before account data is removed and the app should ask you to sign in again.

1. Open Trivia Tussle and make sure the account you want to delete is active.
2. Open Settings.
3. Select Delete account.
4. Read the confirmation message, then confirm only if you want to continue.

What Happens After Authentication Deletion

After Firebase Authentication accepts the deletion, a server-side process is designed to remove or scrub known account-linked Firestore records asynchronously. This includes account/profile trees, owned game and sharing records, progression and participation records, known leaderboard references, guest mappings, notification preferences, and known push-delivery records.

The app also attempts to clear account-linked local records such as the guest installation identifier, privacy and notification choices, selected topics, recent-question history, pending gameplay outboxes, and duplicate-suppression keys. Device appearance and gameplay-presentation preferences may remain because they are not treated as account records.

Do not infer completion from a closed screen or a network error. If the app reports a failure after the account was deleted, use the support path below so the remaining local or service state can be checked.

Records That May Remain Temporarily or Outside the Cleanup

Short-lived deletion fences, sanitized notification tombstones, and hashed rate-limit records can remain temporarily to prevent replay or duplicate delivery. Non-identifying aggregate counters belonging to surviving users are not deleted merely because one account contributed to them.

Google and Firebase operational logs, security records, provider backups, and other provider-controlled records follow provider and account settings. Legacy records that cannot safely be associated with the deleted account may not be discoverable automatically. A legal requirement may also require limited retention.

Request Help or Ask About Other Data

If self-service deletion does not complete, or if you want to ask about other account-linked data, email contacttriviatussle@gmail.com. Include the Firebase user ID when available and, for a Google-linked account, write from the associated email address when practical. A request may require enough information to locate the account and verify that the requester is authorized.

Do not send passwords, authentication codes, payment information, or government identification unless a legally required verification process specifically calls for it. Submitting an email does not by itself confirm that the request has been reviewed or fulfilled.
