Deleting Your WhatsApp Data
Last Updated: October 13, 2026
How to have the messages you sent to Giorgio's WhatsApp business number deleted.
How to Ask
- Write to info@gpwr.dev with the subject "Delete my WhatsApp data".
- Include the phone number you sent the messages from, so that they can be found.
- Giorgio deletes your messages, their attachments and your contact's settings from his home server and from the relay, and replies to confirm when it is done.
What Is Deleted
- Your messages and their attachments
- The profile name and account identifier stored with them
- The settings kept for your contact
Without a Request
Messages and their attachments are deleted automatically 30 days after they arrive. A message the relay could not hand over is deleted from it after 168 hours (7 days) at most.
What This Does Not Cover
The copies on your own phone, and what WhatsApp keeps under its own privacy policy. To delete those, use WhatsApp itself.
