Delete your Sizzle account
Sizzle app. Updated on 10/11/2026.
You can delete your Sizzle account at any time, from the app or by a written request if you no longer have access to it. Deletion from the app is immediate and permanent: your data is erased straight away, including files.
You can also delete some of your data while keeping your account (section 4).
1Delete your account
From the app
- Open Sizzle and sign in to the account you want to delete.
- Tap the Profile tab, then the Settings icon (cog).
- In the My account section, open My data.
- Tap Delete my account. The screen shows what will be erased; tap Continue.
- Enter your account's email address to confirm. The account is deleted immediately.
Before deleting your account, you can take your data with you: in My data, tap Export all my data.
Without the app
If you no longer have the app or cannot sign in, write to us with the subject “Delete my Sizzle account”, preferably from your account's email address. Otherwise, we will ask you to confirm that you are the account holder. We will then delete the account and confirm this to you, within one month at most.
Address to write to:
info@sizzle.cookingSubscription taken out in the app. Deleting your account does not cancel a subscription paid for through your phone's app store: if you have one, cancel it in your app store's settings, otherwise you will continue to be charged.
2What is deleted
Deleting your account immediately erases:
- your account: email address, display name, username, profile picture, bio, password hash, Google or Apple sign-ins;
- your recipes, collections, notes and import history;
- your health data: food diary, weigh-ins, hydration, goals and the measurements used to calculate them, as well as your consent;
- your fridge, cupboards, shopping lists and meal planner;
- your photographs: labels, product photos, photos in your posts and screenshots attached to your problem reports;
- your Community posts, comments, reviews, likes and accounts you follow;
- your Family membership, notifications and device tokens;
- your settings and, where applicable, records of your in-app purchases.
3What is kept, and for how long
| Data | What remains |
|---|---|
| Backups | A copy remains in backups from the previous 7 days, which are deleted at the end of that period. |
| Analysis cost records | Kept, anonymised: nothing links them to you any longer. |
| Food entries you created | Kept in the shared database, without any link to you: other food diaries use them. |
| Content reports you submitted | Kept with the moderation decision, without your identity. |
| Recipes copied by other users | They belong to the person who copied them and remain in that person's recipe library. |
4Delete some of your data
You can keep your account and delete only certain data, directly in the app:
- a recipe: from the recipe, Delete recipe (meals already recorded in the food diary are kept);
- a food diary entry or weigh-in: delete it from the diary or weight chart;
- a post: unpublish or delete it from the Community;
- your fridge: remove an item, or use Empty the fridge.
Withdrawing your consent to health data processing (Profile › Settings › Health data) stops all new recording, but does not erase existing data. To erase all your health data, or any other category of data, without deleting your account, write to us at the address above: we act on your request within one month at most, and erasure is then immediate.
5In English
To delete your Sizzle account: open the app, tap Profile, then Settings (cog icon), My data, Delete my account, and confirm by typing your account email. Deletion is immediate and permanent. Without the app, email us at the address above with the subject “Delete my Sizzle account”; we act within one month.
All account data is deleted: profile, recipes, food diary, weigh-ins and other health data, fridge, lists, plans, photos, community posts, comments and reviews. Backups keep a copy for 7 days. Anonymised cost records, food entries you added to the shared database (no longer linked to you), content reports you filed (without your identity) and recipes other users copied are kept. Deleting your account does not cancel a subscription paid through your phone's app store.
