Delete your C Chat account
You can delete your C Chat by CGuard Pro (CGuard Pro LLC) account at any time, in two ways:
Option 1: in the app
- Open C Chat and go to Settings.
- Tap Delete my account.
- Confirm. You are logged out and deletion starts immediately.
Option 2: by email (without the app)
- Email support@cguardpro.com with the subject "Delete my C Chat account".
- Send it from the same email address you use with C Chat or, if you log in with your phone, include that number (with country code).
- To confirm the account is yours we may send a verification code to that email or phone.
- We acknowledge your request and complete the deletion within 30 days at most, letting you know when it is done.
What is deleted
- Your name, email address, phone number, username and profile photo.
- Your sessions and notification tokens: you stop receiving notifications on all your devices.
- Your membership in all teams and groups.
What is retained and for how long
- Messages and attachments you sent in groups remain for the other members, without your data: they are attributed to "Deleted guest" ("Invitado eliminado"). In the spaces of a security company that uses CGuard Pro, they are part of that company's operational record and are kept for as long as it determines under its contract and legal obligations; in an independent team, while the team exists or until its admins delete them.
- Technical and security logs (for example abuse reports): for as long as needed for service security and legal compliance.
- Backups: your data disappears from them as they rotate, within 90 days at most.
If you are a team's only owner, appoint another owner or admin before deleting your account so the team stays managed.
