Your account and all associated personal data will be removed within 24 hours. The action is permanent — we cannot recover deleted accounts.

If you can no longer sign in (lost phone, forgotten password, or uninstalled the app), email us and we will delete your account on your behalf:
Please email from the address you used to register. We will respond within 30 days as required by GDPR. We may ask for additional verification to confirm you are the account owner.
What gets deleted

What may be retained
For the integrity of the ranking system and other players' records, a limited amount of data may be retained in anonymised form:
- Match results: historical scores remain in the system to preserve other players' ELO history. Your name is replaced with "Deleted player" and is no longer linked to you.
- Booking records: court bookings already completed may be retained by the partner club for their own records, governed by the club's own privacy policy.
- Financial records: if you have made paid bookings, transaction records may be retained for up to 10 years as required by Greek tax law (νόμος 4308/2014).
Timing
- In-app deletion: account is queued immediately, fully removed within 24 hours.
- Email request: processed within 30 days (GDPR requirement).
- Backups: data may persist in encrypted backups for up to 30 days, after which it is permanently overwritten.
