Privacy and your data
Changing or deleting an account affects what data Monkey keeps. For details on retention and how to request a copy or deletion of your data, read the privacy policy linked from the app’s store listing. Depending on where you live, laws such as the GDPR or state privacy laws in the US may give you specific rights.
