If you initiated a data deletion request through Facebook/Meta's user settings, specifically in the "Settings > Apps and Websites" section, where you can manage connected apps like MyFitnessPal you can find steps below to delete your data under “I want to delete my MyFitnessPal account.” Or if you do not intend to delete your account and/or merely wish to disconnect the Facebook Login, please follow the steps below under “I want to disconnect my MyFitnessPal account from Facebook Login.”
What your Facebook deletion request means for your MyFitnessPal Account
For us to complete a data deletion request from Facebook, we will need to delete the following information:
- Email address (allows you to login and receive transactional updates).
- First, middle, and last name (personalize your experience in the app).
- Country/language (this helps us determine the language we use to communicate with you and make region-specific features available to you).
- Gender (this helps inform our guidance about calorie intake).
- Facebook ID (this is a token that allows you to sign into MyFitnessPal through Facebook).
Please note that deleting this information will result in the deletion of your account or information necessary for your account to function properly.
