Deleting Your Account

How to delete your Cerise account and data. You can delete it only from inside the app; what to do if you no longer have the app is explained below. The Cerise app is published by Sergei Olegovich Afinogenov, sole proprietor (Republic of Armenia).

This is the English version of the page; the Russian original says the same thing.

In the app

Settings → Account and data → “Delete account and data.” Deletion happens immediately and cannot be undone: we do not keep anything “in case you change your mind.” If the connection drops halfway, the server will finish the deletion on its own, usually within 20 minutes, and it is safe to tap again.

What is deleted

What remains and for how long

Subscription

Deleting your account does not cancel the subscription: it lives in the App Store or Google Play. Cancel it there, or the charges will continue. iPhone: iPhone Settings → your name → Subscriptions. Android: Google Play → profile → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions.

If you paid for Cerise Plus, your partner keeps access until the end of the paid period; with “Lifetime,” your partner’s access ends immediately.

What your partner will see

The couple disappears without a notification: matches, history, and rewards are deleted for your partner too. Your partner’s own answers stay with your partner.

If you no longer have the app

We do not have your email or phone number, so an account can be deleted only from inside the app. Install Cerise again — on the same phone, or on a new one by restoring from a backup. Your profile may come back through the recovery code: on iPhone it is kept in the keychain, and on Android in Block Store, if the cloud backup is end-to-end encrypted. If the profile has come back, delete it in settings as described above.

If the profile has not come back, we cannot establish which one is yours, and we do not delete data based on a description or an identifier: otherwise someone else could delete it, for example a former partner. Such an account will be deleted on its own if the app has not been opened with it for 24 months (in a couple — if neither partner has opened it), except accounts with an active Cerise Plus — bought by the person or received from a partner — and with a “Lifetime” purchase — together with the data of its couples.

If you never confirmed your age and consent, there is no profile. A sign-in without a profile (if you opened the app and did not pass the age question) is kept without a time limit; it has no name and no answers.
