Data Deletion Instructions

Complete guide to deleting your data from Hey Creator

Important Notice

Account and data deletion is permanent and irreversible. Please ensure you want to proceed before requesting deletion. Consider downloading your data first.

Your Right to Delete Data

At Hey Creator, we respect your privacy and your right to control your personal data. You can request deletion of your account and all associated data at any time.

This page explains what data will be deleted, how to request deletion, and what to expect during the process.

What Data Will Be Deleted

When you delete your account, we will permanently remove:

Profile information (name, email, bio)

Account credentials and login data

Connected social media accounts

Cached social media analytics

Profile photos and uploaded images

Campaigns, boards and reports (brand accounts: 30 days after the request, unless handed over to your team first)

Application history (if creator account)

Messages and communications

Preferences and settings

Usage history and logs

Bank and payment details (from your profile)

All other personally identifiable information

What May Be Retained

Some information may be retained for legitimate business or legal purposes:

Aggregated Analytics

Anonymized, non-identifiable data used for platform insights and improvements

Payment and Invoice Records

Agreed rates, payment amounts and statuses, invoices, subscriptions and billing requests are kept for 5 years for tax, with your name, contact and bank details removed, then deleted.

Content Delivered to a Brand

Posts you delivered on a campaign stay with that brand (the post link, screenshots and metrics), with your name, handle and contact details removed from their records.

Legal Compliance Data

Information required to comply with legal obligations or ongoing legal matters

Fraud Prevention Records

Limited data to prevent abuse and protect platform security

Retained records are de-identified: your name, contact and bank details are removed from them.

How to Delete Your Data

Delete your account yourself from Settings. Email is the fallback for anyone who can no longer sign in.

Option 1: In the App (Immediate)

1

Sign In and Open Settings

Creators: My Profile → Settings. Brands: Profile → Settings (brand admins only).

2

Choose Delete Account

At the bottom of Settings, under Account, click Delete account. The dialog lists exactly what is removed and what is kept.

3

Confirm

Type DELETE. If you signed in more than five minutes ago you will be asked for your password (or to sign in again with Google, Facebook or Apple) so nobody else can delete your account from an open session.

4

Done

Your connected platforms are disconnected at the vendor, your profile, login and personal records are removed at once, and you are signed out. A brand admin whose team still has other members must transfer or remove them first.

Public data about your social handles that HeyCreator already held (follower counts, public posts) is shared data: it is kept, but unlinked from you and stripped of anything you consented to share through a connected account.

Option 2: Email Request (If You Cannot Sign In)

1

Send an Email

Send a deletion request to: mail@takat.ai

2

Include Required Information

  • Subject line: "Data Deletion Request"
  • Your registered email address
  • Your account type (Creator or Brand)
  • Confirmation statement: "I confirm I want to permanently delete my account and all associated data"
3

Verify Your Identity

We may ask you to verify your identity to prevent unauthorized deletions

4

Receive Confirmation

You will receive a confirmation email within 48 hours

Option 3: Disconnect a Platform Only (Self-Service)

1

Log In to Your Account

Access your Hey Creator account and open My Profile → Settings.

2

Disconnect a Social Account

Under your connected accounts, click Disconnect next to any platform.

3

Access Is Revoked

Disconnecting immediately revokes our access to that platform and removes its data from your profile.

Disconnecting removes individual platform connections. To delete your entire account, use Delete account in Settings (Option 1).

Deletion Timeline

Deleting from Settings takes effect immediately: your login, profile and personal records are removed and your connected platforms disconnected while you wait. Backups are purged within 90 days. For an email request, here's what to expect:

Within 48 hours

Verification & Confirmation

We verify your identity and send a confirmation email

3-7 days

Account Deactivation

Your account is immediately deactivated and inaccessible

Within 30 days

Complete Data Deletion

All personal data is permanently removed from our systems

Within 90 days

Backup Purge

Disconnect Social Media Accounts (Without Full Deletion)

If you only want to disconnect social media accounts without deleting your Hey Creator account:

Steps to Disconnect:

  1. Log in to your Hey Creator account
  2. Go to Settings → Connected Accounts
  3. Click "Disconnect" next to the platform you want to remove
  4. Confirm disconnection

This will revoke Hey Creator's access to your social media data while keeping your Hey Creator account active.
