Email hello@tinta.com.my from the email address on your account, with the subject “Delete my Tinta account”. Tell us whether you want to keep your published stories or delete everything. We will confirm the request is yours before deleting anything.
What gets deleted
- Keep my stories — your account is anonymised: your email, username, profile, sign-in details, devices, follows and unpublished drafts are removed. Stories, chapters and comments you published stay up for their readers, shown as “[deleted]” with no link to you.
- Delete everything — your account and everything linked to it are permanently deleted, including every story, chapter, comment, message and file you uploaded.
What we may keep
Limited records may be kept where needed for security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, and enforcing bans. Copies may remain for a short time in encrypted backups until those backups are replaced in our normal backup cycle. See our Privacy Policy for details.
