You can delete your Squat Boss account in the App settings.
Deleting your account removes your backend account and associated account data, including profile data, leaderboard data, live challenge data, chat data, device tokens, and login identity data.
Deleting your Squat Boss account does not cancel your Apple subscription.
To cancel a subscription, you must manage it through your Apple ID subscription settings.

After Apple and RevenueCat report that your entitlement is inactive, Squat Boss may show the paywall again before allowing access to paid features.

We keep account and gameplay data while your account is active.
When you delete your account, we delete account-related backend data unless we are required to retain limited information for legal, security, fraud prevention, or dispute purposes.
Some anonymous or aggregate information may be retained if it no longer identifies you.
