How to remove your XXXMatch account
At least the site is honest about data retention: you cannot delete your account. From their FAQ:
‘Once a profile has been entered into the system it is there permanently. You can however, hide your profile if you wish.’
But wait, as one of our users pointed out, it seems to be possible to have your account removed after all! Send a polite email to support@xxxmatch.com with your request. Make sure to remove all your pictures from your profile before sending the mail.
Helpful Trick: Removing online data
Publicly visible text/images often aren’t properly removed even when you succeed in removing an account. Try editing or removing them manually before removing the account itself. If you’re unsure what happens to your tracks: this can be found mostly in the Terms of Service/Privacy Policy; otherwise you can always contact XXXMatch and ask personally. By the way, removal requests don’t necessarily mean your data will actually be removed (e.g. due to legal obligations).
