Data Deletion Instructions
You can ask us to delete the personal data we hold about you at any time. This page explains how. It applies to everyone: developers, subscribers, people who contacted us or reported an issue, and people who sent us a message through WhatsApp or email. a11y.tr does not use Facebook Login and does not store Facebook profile data.
How to request deletion
- Developers with an account: sign in to the management panel and use the account deletion option in your account settings. If you cannot sign in or prefer not to, use step 2.
- Everyone else, or if you prefer email: send an email to [email protected] with the subject
Delete my data. Tell us what to delete and include the details we need to find it (see the table below). Please write from the email address that is linked to the data. - We confirm it is you. We may reply to the email address involved with a short confirmation request. For WhatsApp messages, we match the phone number you give us to the messages we received from it. We do not send messages to you on WhatsApp for this.
- We delete the data and confirm by email, normally within 30 days of the request.
What to include in your request
| If you are | Tell us |
|---|---|
| A developer | Your username (the address of your page on a11y.tr) and your account email address. |
| A subscriber | The email address you subscribed with. You can also use the unsubscribe link in any email we sent you. |
| Someone who sent a WhatsApp message | The phone number you sent it from, in international format, and roughly when you sent it. |
| Someone who sent an email, contact message or issue report | The email address you used, the app or developer page involved and roughly when. |
What happens to your data
- Deleted: your account and profile, your subscriptions and preferences, your contact messages and issue reports that identify you, and the raw text of announcements we received from you through WhatsApp or email.
- Your published pages: when a developer account is deleted, its public pages, apps and releases are removed from a11y.tr and from our feeds. Copies already held by other sites or feed readers are outside our control.
- Issue reports and comments you wrote on someone else's app page: we delete them or remove your identity from them, depending on what keeps the developer's record of the problem usable.
- Kept in minimal form: a one-way hash of an email address that unsubscribed or asked for deletion, so we do not email it again; and records we must keep by law.
- Backups: deleted data disappears from backups as they are overwritten, within 35 days.
Messages sent through WhatsApp: WhatsApp messages are also stored by Meta under Meta's own terms. Deleting a message from your phone or from our systems does not delete Meta's copy. To manage data that Meta holds, use WhatsApp's own settings and privacy tools.
Other rights and questions
You can also ask to see, correct or export your data, or to object to processing. See the Privacy Policy for all your rights, and the Terms of Use for how the service works. If you are not satisfied with our answer, you can complain to your data protection authority; in Türkiye this is the Personal Data Protection Authority (KVKK).
