Deleting Your Data
You have complete control over your data. Here's how to delete it.
Your Data, Your Control

Before You Delete
Consider these steps first:
Partner Shared Data
If you've shared data with a partner:
- • Deleting data on your device removes it from yours only
- • Previously synced data remains on their device
- • They must delete their copy separately
- • Future syncs won't restore deleted data
Cannot Undo
Remember: Lova has no cloud backup. Once deleted:
- • It cannot be recovered by us
- • It cannot be recovered by you (unless you have a backup)
- • There is no "restore from cloud" option
This is a feature, not a bug - it ensures your privacy.
