What Data Gets Deleted
When you delete your account, we permanently remove:

Data That May Be Retained
Some data may be retained for limited periods due to legal or operational requirements:
| Data Type | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Email hash (one-way) | 1 year | Prevents free trial abuse* |
| Transaction records | 7 years | Tax and financial compliance |
| Fraud prevention logs | 1 year | Security and abuse prevention |
| Anonymized analytics | Indefinite | Service improvement (non-identifiable) |
*About email hash: We store a cryptographic hash (SHA-256) of your email address to prevent users from deleting and re-registering to get unlimited free trials. This hash is one-way and cannot be reversed to obtain your actual email address. After 1 year, the hash expires and you would be eligible for a new trial if you return.
Retained data is anonymized or encrypted and cannot be used to identify you.
What Happens After Deletion
- Your account cannot be recovered
- Your emergency contacts will no longer receive alerts
- Any active subscription benefits will be lost
- You'll need to create a new account to use OK Today again
- Important: If you re-register with the same email within 1 year, you will not receive another free trial (you can still subscribe)
