Data Deletion
Effective date: September 27, 2026
This page explains how to delete your MyFamBud account and everything stored with it. The instructions are the same whether you signed up with an email and password or signed in with Apple, Google, or Facebook.
If you signed in with Apple, deleting your account also tells Apple to end the connection between your Apple Account and MyFamBud, so the app stops appearing under Settings → your name → Sign in with Apple on your devices.
1. Delete your account from inside the app
This is the fastest way and takes effect immediately:
- Sign in at myfambud.com/app, or open the MyFamBud app on your iPhone or iPad. The steps below are the same in both.
- Open Settings, then Danger zone.
- Choose Delete account.
- Confirm. If you signed up with an email and password, you will be asked to re-enter your password. If you signed in with Apple, Google, or Facebook, no password is needed.
Your account and data are deleted right away. This cannot be undone.
2. Erase your data but keep your account
If you only want to start over, go to Settings, then Danger zone, and choose Clear all data. This removes all of your budget content while keeping your account, theme, and currency settings.
3. If you cannot sign in
Email [email protected] from the email address associated with your account and ask us to delete it. If you signed in with Google or Facebook, use the email address tied to that account. We reply within 48 hours, and the account is deleted as soon as we have confirmed the request is genuine.
4. What gets deleted
Deleting your account permanently removes:
- Your profile information, including your email and name.
- All budget data - income, accounts, categories, transactions, tags, net worth items, recurring payments, paycheck plans, and family member labels.
- Your app preferences.
- The connection between your MyFamBud account and your Google or Facebook account, if you used one to sign in.
5. If you have a Pro subscription
What happens depends on where you bought Pro:
- Bought on the website - deleting your account cancels the subscription immediately, so you will not be charged again. Records of past payments are retained by our payment processor, Stripe, where required by law.
- Bought in the iPhone or iPad app - Apple bills this subscription, and deleting your account does not cancel it. Cancel it yourself in Settings → your name → Subscriptions on your device, or at apps.apple.com/account/subscriptions, ideally before you delete your account. The app reminds you of this before it deletes anything.
6. Removing the app from Facebook or Google
Removing MyFamBud from your Facebook or Google account settings only stops you from signing in with that provider in the future. It does not delete data already stored in MyFamBud. To delete your data, use the steps in section 1 or section 3 above.
7. Backups
Your data is removed from our live systems immediately. A copy may remain in secure backups for a limited period before being automatically purged, as described in our Privacy Policy.
