# Meta data deletion requests
Source: https://docs.aden.space/docs/help/run-the-business/meta-data-deletion

Facebook and Instagram users who remove Aden can ask Meta to have their data deleted; Aden receives the signed callback, deletes any stored data, and gives the user a confirmation code and public status page.

## What it is [#what-it-is]

If you connected Aden to your Facebook or Instagram account and later remove
it, Meta lets you request that Aden deletes any data it holds about you.
Aden processes that request automatically and gives you a confirmation code
so you can check the outcome.

## Using it [#using-it]

1. On Facebook, go to Settings & Privacy → Settings → Apps and Websites.
2. Remove Aden, then choose "Send Request" under removed apps.
3. Meta shows a confirmation code and a link to
   `aden.space/legal/data-deletion`, where you can check the status of your
   request at any time.

You can also email [privacy@aden.space](mailto:privacy@aden.space) to request deletion directly.
