Data Deletion Instructions

Disconnect a social account

Removes the connected-account record and immediately deletes the OAuth tokens FavStash holds for that account. Disconnecting YouTube or X also asks the platform to revoke FavStash’s grant before the local data is deleted. Successful disconnection also deletes the cached account image, synced post records and growth history. Automatic syncing stops, and scheduled posts cannot publish through the disconnected channel. For Instagram, revoke the platform grant separately using the steps below.

• Sign in at favstash.app/dashboard/schedule.
• Open Manage in the channels bar, find the account, and choose Disconnect.
• Optionally also revoke FavStash on the platform side: Instagram (Settings → Website permissions → Apps and websites), Google (security.google.com), TikTok (Settings → Security → Apps), or LinkedIn (Settings & Privacy → Data privacy → Permitted services).

Posts already on the social platform, independently saved stash items, and your authored drafts and scheduled-post records remain. Delete those separately if needed. Uploaded media follows the 30-day lifecycle below; limited backup and security-log retention may also apply.

Delete individual saves or scheduled posts

• Saves: open the item in the mobile app or web stash and delete it. Its derived text (transcript, summary) and search-index entry are removed with it.
• Scheduled posts: cancel or delete them from the Schedule page. Uploaded post media automatically expires 30 days after its most recent upload, scheduling, or rescheduling. Cloud storage lifecycle processing is asynchronous, so removal can complete shortly after that eligibility point.

Delete your entire account

In the mobile app or web dashboard, go to account settings and choose Delete account. This immediately disables sign-in and starts a 30-day deletion workflow that permanently removes:

• your profile and sign-in identity,
• every saved item, note, collection, and search-index entry,
• all connected social-account records and their OAuth tokens; YouTube grants are revoked and this data is deleted before the 30-day grace window begins,
• scheduled-post records and analytics caches; uploaded post media is removed by the 30-day automatic lifecycle described above,
• API keys.

The 30-day window exists solely so we can recover the rest of an account deleted by mistake. Disconnected social integrations are not restored and must be connected again. After the window elapses, deletion is permanent. Residual copies in encrypted backups and security logs age out on a limited schedule.

Data received from Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, or X

Platform data FavStash receives (your channel profile, where available the performance metrics of your accounts and posts, and for Instagram comment automations the commenters’ usernames, Instagram-scoped IDs, comment text and message status) is deleted when you disconnect the account or delete your FavStash account, as described above. Deleting a single comment automation also deletes its commenter list and activity. LinkedIn personal connections do not provide analytics or feed-history access. To request deletion of anything you believe we still hold, email contact@sketricsolutions.com from your account email. We delete YouTube Authorized Data as soon as possible and no later than seven calendar days after a verified request or disconnection.

Deleting data from FavStash does not delete posts or account data stored by Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn or X. Remove that content directly on the relevant platform.

Commented on a creator’s post? If a creator uses FavStash comment automations, FavStash may hold your Instagram username, Instagram-scoped ID, comment and message status. You don’t need a FavStash account to remove it: reply “STOP” to the message to stop further messages, and email contact@sketricsolutions.com with your Instagram username. We delete it across every creator’s automations and confirm by email.

Instagram can also send FavStash a signed deauthorization or data-deletion request when you remove the app from Instagram. FavStash verifies Meta’s signature and immediately deletes the matching Instagram connection record, OAuth token, cached profile image, synced post records, growth history, and that account’s comment automations with their commenters, activity and queued messages. A successful automated deletion request receives a confirmation code and this status URL.
