User Data Deletion

Bird rescue and care

Last updated: 21 October 2026 · Web, Android, iOS and macOS

Draft. Operator, hosting and retention details are still being finalised.

You can request deletion of data associated with your FlyAgain account and Facebook login by email, without signing in. The operator handles requests; this page is not an automatic deletion form.

To stop using Facebook as a convenient login method, unlink it in the Facebook section of the web Settings while signed in, confirming the dialog. This removes the Facebook ID; your FlyAgain account, profile photo and case data remain. For full data deletion, send the request described above.

How to request deletion

  1. Email info@myndideal.com. Subject: FlyAgain data deletion request.
  2. Provide the name and email address you use in FlyAgain. You may also include your FlyAgain user ID if you know it. Indicate whether you registered with Facebook.
  3. Specify whether you want your entire account and personal data deleted, or only the Facebook-related data/connection. After the Facebook connection is removed, that login method will no longer work.
  4. If possible, send the request from the email address associated with your account. If you no longer have access to it, say so; the necessary verification will be arranged separately. Do not send passwords, Facebook tokens or unsolicited copies of identity documents.

What happens after your request?

The operator identifies the account, requests clarification if needed and informs you of the outcome. As a rule, you receive a response within one month; you must also be informed of the reason for any lawful extension.

A full account deletion request covers account identifiers, name, email, Facebook ID, profile photo, profile data, location data, login sessions and personal content attributable to you. Personal data in shared cases, photos, journals and messages must also be reviewed and deleted or appropriately anonymised where there is no lawful reason to retain it. Bird case and care records that cannot be linked to a person may remain.

If the law requires retention instead of deletion, you will be informed of the data concerned, the reason and the retention period. Backup retention is described in the privacy policy. Server-side deletion does not automatically remove drafts or downloads on your own devices, or copies previously made by others.

Removing the Facebook connection

You can remove FlyAgain’s access in Facebook’s settings under apps and websites. This revokes permission on Facebook; separately request deletion of data already transferred to FlyAgain by emailing the address above. You do not need to delete your Facebook account.

Local data

After submitting your deletion request, sign out on the devices you use. You can delete local web drafts in the application or through your browser’s site data settings. For native apps, contact the address above if you need help removing local data and remembered login details; uninstalling an app does not remove every saved item on all platforms.

Location sharing: enabling, disabling and background recording

Location sharing helps coordinate bird-rescue and transport tasks: an authorised dispatcher can see a participant’s recent location while the travelling user uses another app or locks their phone. This is not an emergency-location or guaranteed continuous-monitoring service; confirm essential coordination details directly when needed.

Location sharing, background measurement on this device and route-history retention are separate settings. Background recording is off by default. Under Settings → Field location sharing, users who have already enabled location sharing may enable “Record in the background on this device” after accepting a separate disclosure. System location permission is also required. Accepting the EULA, registering or consenting on another device does not enable it. Case management and manual journey-status updates remain available without location sharing.

Turning off the background switch stops background measurement locally on that device, including when offline; foreground location sharing may continue according to its separate setting. The Android notification’s Stop action disables the same background permission. To stop all location sharing, use “Never share my location”; stopping one journey stops recording for that journey. Once the server confirms that location sharing is disabled, background consent is cleared for every device. A stop requested from another device reaches the recording client on its next successful refresh. System location permission can also be revoked in the phone’s settings.

Recording processes coordinates, measurement timestamps, accuracy and identifiers associated with the account and recording device. Precise live location is visible only to authorised dispatchers and administrators; it is not public. Full route-history retention requires both the personal and system GPS-history settings. Users can view their own retained routes; dispatchers/admins need the corresponding authorisation. Disabling recording does not delete earlier data: existing routes follow the retention periods in the privacy policy and settings, and applicable deletion rights. The temporary local upload queue may contain previously measured points; a delayed upload does not restart recording. Location data is not sold or used for advertising tracking.

The iOS/iPadOS, macOS and Android apps can continue recording already started by the user. The browser version does not offer continuous background GPS recording through this switch. The system indicates location use; Android also offers a stop action in its service notification, whose display depends on system notification permission. GPS reception, connectivity, power saving, operating-system termination or force-quitting the app may interrupt recording. The feature may increase battery consumption.

The optional Apple Watch app is connected with separate approval on the iPhone and receives its own revocable access; your password is not copied to the watch. The watch is a separate GPS source with its own location permission and background recording setting. It stores points locally while offline and uploads them with server acknowledgement. Watch access can be revoked on the iPhone; a stop or revocation reaches another device at its next successful communication. The watch feature is under development and testing.

Detailed privacy policy · Data deletion and privacy requests

Status as of 21 October 2026: background location recording is under development and testing. This status note does not replace separate permission or limit your privacy rights.
