DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT

This page explains how to delete your account on Gutter (the app "Gutter" by Gutter Comics on Google Play, and thegutter.in) and what happens to your data.

Option 1 — in the app (fastest)

1. Log in to Gutter.
2. Tap My Profile, then ⚙ Edit profile (or go to thegutter.in/me).
3. Scroll to Delete account and tap Delete my account…
4. Type your handle (and your password, if you have one) and confirm.

Your account is deleted straight away and you're logged out on every device.

Option 2 — by email

If you can't log in, email [email protected] from the email address on your account, with your @handle. We confirm and delete it within 7 days. A parent or guardian can ask us to delete a child's account the same way.

What is deleted

• Your email address and password
• Google or Facebook sign-in links
• Your display name
• All your login sessions
• For children's accounts: the parent or guardian's email

What is kept, and why

• Your panels inside stories. Comics are made together, and other people's panels build on yours, so your panels stay in their stories. They show your @handle marked as deactivated. Email us if you'd like your handle hidden from them too.
• Your @handle stays reserved so nobody else can use it to impersonate you.
• Server logs and usage records (for security and abuse prevention) are kept for up to 12 months and then deleted.

Deleting some data without deleting your account

• Delete a panel you made while nobody has continued it yet (open the panel → Delete).
• Edit or remove the speech bubbles on your panels.
• Change or clear your display name in My Profile → Edit profile.
• For anything else, email [email protected].
